To make using a VPN easier, nodes can be named so that their name can be used instead of their address.
This can be done by editing `/etc/hosts`:
$> sudo nano /etc/hosts
For each node a line with
IP-ADDRESS NAME
needs to be added (e.g. `10.0.0.1 node1.vpn`).
It is a good idea to add a common suffix to all nodes of one vpn like `.vpn`.
