Configuring a Valid HOSTS File - JS-Produksiyon/pulsar GitHub Wiki

Pulsar has the capability of modifying the system hosts file to add entries for Nebula network hosts in IP Address / Hostname pairs. To do this, Pulsar uses the standard format used in the hosts file. For convenience the IT department can provide a file with the pairs. The file might look as follows:

10.10.10.1   lighthouse1.mesh.example.com    # lighthouse 1
10.10.10.2   lighthouse2.mesh.example.com    # lighthouse 2
10.10.10.10  server.mesh.example.com         # file server
10.10.10.11  www.mesh.example.com            # intranet server

The format is: IP address [space or tab] Hostname [space or tab] # comment

Pulsar will ignore any lines not in this format and will not add them to the hosts file.

This should be saved as a text file, that is then pointed to in the Register Nebula network hosts locally Configure... dialog box in the Pulsar interface (see Usage: Register Nebula network hosts locally for details).
