No, actually I would be OK with such names (gw1.xxx), but Intermapper doesn't 
let me choose
that because I only have a choice between the long DNS name, and the short DNS 
name, which is
only the first part of the DNS.

I'd like to avoid using static names for my monitored devices and use the DNS 
resolver feature
of Intermapper.
