This magic is done by the echoipdns by looking at the ip address in the second part of the domain name and returning the same ip address on DNS query. If your machine ip address is 192.168.1.100 you could now use a domain name which will always resolve to 192.168.1.100. You can use any other suffix also just replace dev with name you want.Įchoipdns is even more powerful, when you want to use your url from other machines in network you can still use it with zero configuration.įor e.g. dev subdomains are redirected to 127.0.0.1, so any domain with xyz.dev etc will resolve to 127.0.0.1.

By running echoipdns dev all requests for.
