How do I point a domain to another IP (similar to a host entry) during a test?

I would like to point a domain to another public IP when I run tests and switch back and forth IPs. Is there a way to do that?

Currently NeoLoad relies on the system regarding the name resolution of the server. That means that the load generators can't point by themselves to a different IP for the same domain during the tests.

This kind of feature might be implemented in future NeoLoad versions as we already have an enhancement request opened for this type of query.

The only thing that you could do if possible is to use in your design a variable for the server hostname in NeoLoad containing different IP's so they can change according to the change policy of your variable.

But i can understand that it might not be possible.
