  This section shows how to set up the environment. 
  
  **6.2.1 Setting up the DNS**
  
  OpenShift Container Platform requires a fully functional DNS server in the environment. A set 
  of records must be configured in your DNS to provide name resolution for hosts and 
  containers running on the platform. Optionally, you can also configure a wildcard DNS record 
  that points to the load balancer or routers to avoid the need to update your DNS configuration 
  when new routes are added. 
  
  Example 6-1 shows a sample DNS Masquerade configuration.
