Validate your asset configuration

To test your website using your own domain name BEFORE DNS propagation has completed, you can use your local computer’s HOSTS file. Your computer uses the entries in your HOSTS file first before it tries to use your ISP to look up the DNS information for your domain. The HOSTS file is a special file on your workstation computer that stores IP address and name information. This file is checked before DNS, so if you place an entry in this file it supersedes anything set in DNS. This feature is useful in testing websites as it allows you to control which IP your local computer visits regardless of what is set in the DNS. The format of the HOSTS file is simple. Each line has an IP address and a host name separated by one or more spaces. By default, hosts files typically contain entries for the local host and some comment text describing the file and its use. It is best not to change any of these lines.

Example:

1.2.3.4 example.com
1.2.3.4 www.example.com

Windows:

  1. From the Start menu, search for “Notepad” (Win 8, 10) or navigate to: All Programs -> Accessories -> Notepad (Win XP, Vista, 7)`.
  2. Right-click Notepad and select Run As Administrator.
  3. In Notepad, click “Open” and select the file - C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts.
  4. Edit the file and save.

Linux:

  1. Open a terminal window.
  2. Edit the file /etc/hosts as root with a text editor. Example: sudo nano /etc/hosts.

Validate your Settings:

  1. Open a command prompt.
  2. Type: ping -c2 example.com
  3. The ping results show the IP address and confirm that it is responding.
  4. Open your browser on the local computer where the host settings have been configured. The browser is now connected to the website.

Note:

When you are finished testing, remember to remove the custom lines that you added to your Hosts file.
