Configuring and Managing Aliases
An alias is a string that represents an IP address. You can use aliases as shortcuts in CLI
commands. For example, you can configure alias pubs1 for IP address 10.10.10.20, and
enter ping pubs1 as a shortcut for ping 10.10.10.20.
Aliases take precedence over DNS. When you enter a hostname, MSS checks for an alias
with that name first, before using DNS to resolve the name.
