To access Verdin boards by name, such as verdin-imx8mp-xxxxxxxx, a DNS server is typically required to resolve these names to their corresponding IP addresses. This feature is particularly useful for running services like web servers on the devices.

  1. DNS Server in TorizonCore: It is essential to check if a DNS server is already installed in TorizonCore. If not, you may need to set one up or configure the existing network settings to support name resolution.

  2. Adding a New Device Name: To add a new “device-name” for accessing the Verdin boards, you can either:

    • Modify DNS Settings: If a DNS server is available, add the new device name and its IP address to the DNS records.
    • Edit Hosts File: Alternatively, modify the hosts file on the device to include the new name and its corresponding IP address.

The exact steps for adding a device name may vary, so consulting the TorizonCore documentation or network configuration guidelines is recommended. Ensure you have the necessary administrative access to make these changes.
