TCP/IP Host table questions

I have some questions on the TCP/IP Host table (CFGTCP > option 10 Work
with TCP/IP host table entries).
When and how is this table used?
What is its relationship to other servers?

I have an entry
10.1.14.170 ABC24
I changed it to
10.1.14.170 ABC24.XYZ.LOCAL

Before the change everything was okay but after the change had failures of
jobs. As you can guess I changed it back.

I have other IP's maped similarly.
10.1.14.128 EFG33 EFG33.XYZ.LOCAL
and these work.

I had asked some questions of my network people because the names/IPs of
some servers were changing. I was trying to make sure this table was
correct. They said I should make the change above. Obviously not.

I guess I am trying to understand this table and how to use it. If you
have a link to a document that explains it in simple terms that would be
great.

TIA
