NAME
       ipnodes - The IP node name database

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/ipnodes

DESCRIPTION
       The  ipnodes  file  contains  information  regarding the known IP nodes
       (both IPv4 and IPv6) on the network.   For  each	 node  a  single  line
       should  be  present  with the following information: IP_address canoni‐
       cal_nodename aliases

       Items are separated by any number of blanks or tab characters, or both.
       The # (number sign) indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up
       to the end of the line are not interpreted by routines which search the
       file.

       Network	addresses, both IPv4 and IPv6, are specified in the IPv6 nota‐
       tion using the inet_pton() routine from the Internet address  manipula‐
       tion  library.	Node  names  may contain any printable character other
       than a field delimiter, newline, or comment character.
