5.2.5 remote-host
Function
Registers remote host information, which shows the relationship between the remote hostname and IP address.
By registering the IP address of a remote host, which is used frequently, the name can be specified instead of the IP address,
which leads to improved convenience. The relationship between the registered hostname and IP address is given priority over
the DNS server configuration.
Use the no form to delete registered remote host information.
