TCP/IP Name Resolution

If using a host name or domain name, your system must have a way to resolve that name to an IP address.

You can use any symbolic name that can be mapped to an IP address, such as a host name or a domain name. Your system must be set up to resolve the name to an IP address. Check with your network administrator for further information about your system's use of names.

If you are relying on name resolution to resolve names to IP addresses, this capability must be installed and configured on your system. There are many ways to implement name resolution, including the Domain Name Service (DNS), and the use of host files.
