Host Flags Age Type Address(es)

In the preceding router output, you can see the two hostnames and their
associated IP addresses. The perm in the Flags column means that the entry
is manually configured. If it said temp, it would be an entry resolved by DNS.
To verify that the host table resolves names, try typing the hostnames at
a router prompt. Remember that if you don't specify the command, the
router assumes you want to telnet. In the following example, I used the host-
names to telnet into the remote devices and then pressed Ctrl
+Shift+6, then
X to return to the main console of the Todd2509 router.
