I have several localhost entries on my local etc/host file. (in Mac "/etc/hosts" and in Windows "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts"
# LOCAL DEVELOPMENT
172.16.5.248 maxim.local
172.16.5.248 m.maxim.local
My Computer is connected to a VPN.
I want to know when I type "maxim.local" in my browser (i.e Chrome)
Will the request go to the VPN DNS server? or will request will be handle locally only?
