Configuring Hosts (NSM Procedure)
You can configure hostnames in NSM that the Secure Access device can resolve to IP addresses. This feature is useful when:
- Your DNS server is not accessible to the Secure Access device.
- You use WINS to access servers within the LAN.
- Your corporate security policy does not allow internal servers to be listed on an external DNS or requires that internal hostnames are masked.
To configure hosts:
- In the NSM navigation tree, select Device Manager > Devices. Click the Device Tree tab, and then double-click the Secure Access device for which you want to configure hosts.
- Click the Configuration tab, and select System > Network Settings > Hosts. The corresponding workspace appears.
- Add or modify settings as specified in Table 80.
- Click one:
- OK—Saves the changes.
- Cancel—Cancels the modification.
