Configuring Static DNS Host to Address Entries

You can manually configure static entries in the DNS table that are used to
map domain names to IP addresses.
Command Usage
Static entries may be used for local devices connected directly to the
attached network, or for commonly used resources located elsewhere
on the network.
Servers or other network devices may support one or more
connections via multiple IP addresses. If more than one IP address is
associated with a host name in the static table or via information
returned from a name server, a DNS client can try each address in
succession, until it establishes a connection with the target device.
