I added in /etc/hosts as

I tried adding the host as sw1 and sw1.xxx.local still no progress. It's saying not able to resolve. I suppose we have to have a private DNS which resolves IP into hosts and vice versa. Are my thoughts correct?

Just add the hostname <-> ip mappings to your /etc/hosts file.
We do it for almost every observium instance we work on.

You mean add the device IP and the name even if the IP /device name is not mapped in the DNS?

Hi,
Thank you. What do you mean by "add a host file entry on the server" ? Should I add in the /etc/hosts as follows ( without private DNS)
vi /etc/hosts
192.168.x.x server example.server ------- entry for the observium server? 192.168.y.y sw1 sw1.server ----------------entry for switch or router?
Will this work?
