Question 268

A technician needs to override DNS and redirect IP addresses and URLs to different locations. Which of the following should the technician do?

    Correct Answer: B

    To override DNS and redirect IP addresses and URLs to different locations, a technician should edit the hosts file. The hosts file is a local configuration file that maps hostnames to IP addresses, allowing for custom redirections on that specific machine. This technique enables the technician to bypass the default DNS lookup process for specified domains and redirect them as needed.

Discussion
FT786Option: B

B. Edit the hosts file. To override DNS and redirect IP addresses and URLs to different locations, a technician should edit the hosts file on the computer in question. The hosts file is a text file that maps hostnames to IP addresses locally on the computer, and by modifying this file, you can specify custom IP address mappings for specific domains. This allows you to redirect URLs and override DNS settings for individual websites without affecting the entire network. The other options mentioned (A, C, D) are not directly related to overriding DNS and redirecting IP addresses and URLs in this context.
