Hosts是一个没有扩展名的系统文件,可以用记事本等工具打开,其作用就是将一些常用的网址域名与其对应的IP地址建立一个关联“数据库”,当用户在浏览器中输入一个需要登录的网址时,系统会首先自动从Hosts文件中寻找对应的IP地址,一旦找到,系统会立即打开对应网页,如果没有找到,则系统会再将网址提交DNS域名解析服务器进行IP地址的解析。
浏览器访问网站,要首先通过DNS服务器把要访问的网站域名解析成一个唯一的IP地址,之后,浏览器才能对此网站进行定位并且访问其数据。
操作系统规定,在进行DNS请求以前,先检查系自己的Hosts文件中是否有这个域名和IP的映射关系。如果有,则直接访问这个IP地址指定的网络位置,如果没有,再向已知的DNS服务器提出域名解析请求。也就是说Hosts的IP解析优先级比DNS要高。

如何修改hosts文件
hosts文件原内容如下:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#‘ symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself. # 127.0.0.1 localhost # ::1 localhost
在最后新增如下内容:
127.0.0.1 www.163.com
表示域名“www.163.com”指向的ip为127.0.0.1,即本地。修改后文件内容如下:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#‘ symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself. # 127.0.0.1 localhost # ::1 localhost 127.0.0.1 www.163.com
修改后用浏览器访问“www.163.com”会被解析到127.0.0.1,导致无法显示该网页。
为了进一步验证,使用tomcat在本地启动一个Web服务。tomcat版本为:apache-tomcat-8.5.4,其他版本应该操作类似。
下载解压tomcat后,运行apache-tomcat-8.5.4\bin\startup.bat,待tomcat启动成功,本地就有了一个Web服务了。
这时再访问"www.163.com:8080",就可以看到有页面内容了:
为什么要加上8080呢,因为这是端口号,tomcat开启的Web服务默认使用8080端口,而浏览器中默认的是80端口,所以必需要显示指明。也可以修改tomcat安装目录下的config/server.xml中的8080为80,这样就不用在访问时显式指定端口了。
这就是通过修改hosts文件来使域名指向某个IP的方式了,如果需要添加多条配置,直接再新增一行内容就行了。
