I have a static address entry:
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx bkup 192.168.0.253 1440min

and an Additional DNSMasq option:
address=/iotserver/192.168.0.253

On my LAN machines, I can ping bkup but not iotserver. I get an unknown host error. I CANNOT USE HOSTS file on the LAN machines.

They are the same address but I want to set up my IOT devices to look for iotserver so that if I need to temporary take down bkup, I can just change the dd-wrt settings to point to a different iotserver and not have to change every device.
