After doing this, you can access the machines by name: <code>ssh '''userid'''@liberia</code>

A gigabit ethernet LAN connects the PCs in the south end of CDOT (Australia, India, China, Ireland, and Scotland). The IP addresses on this LAN are 172.30.30.''X'', where ''X'' is the same last octet as the machine's external interface. These machines have DNS entries within the cdot.proximity.on.ca subdomain which are the same as the hostname with "2" appended (e.g., india2.cdot.proximity.on.ca refers to the CDOTnet interface on the host "india").

CDOTnet has no external interface and is therefore only useful for communication between the machines directly connected to it.
