To assign host names to addresses, first
enter global configuration mode. Issue the command
ip host
followed by the name of the destination and all IP addresses where the
device can be reached. This maps the host name to each of its
interface IP addresses. To reach the host, use a
telnet or
ping
command with the name of the router or an IP address that is
associated with the router name.

The procedure to configure the host table:

- Enter global configuration mode in
the router.
- Enter the command
ip host
followed by the name of the router and all IP addresses associated
with the interfaces on each router.
- Continue entering until all routers
in the network are entered.
- Save the configuration to NVRAM.
