Manage server name mappings

Add a server name mapping to override how search results are displayed and how users access content after you create a content index. Delete a server name mapping when you no longer want to override how search results are displayed in search results or how users access content after you create a content index.

To manage server name mappings, you must first open the Server Name Mappings page:

• On the Search Administration page, under Queries and Results, click Server name mappings.
