Using vyos' DNS for local name resolution

General questions
1

Hi,
I have configured 2 local networks in vyos: LAN + DMZ.

Question:
Dnsmasq normally work when using it for local name resolution.
One must maintain /etc/hosts at least.

Should this work with dnsmasq in vyos, too?

I tried to add entries in /etc/hosts, but local name resolution fails.

Any advise?

THX

You can use static host mapping
set system static-host-mapping host-name example.com inet 127.0.0.1

Thanks.
Is this command set system static-host-mapping host-name example.com inet 127.0.0.1 required to enable static host mapping and I must maintain /etc/hosts additionally?
Or must I execute this command for every single hostname + IP?

This is a productive router that I don’t want to mess up with some try&error procedures.
