Local DNS server

Sorry if this is already posted but I can't seem to find it. I am setting up security cameras at my house and the external DNS is cameras.domain.com. I want to be able to configure a local DNS entry for the same name, but have it point to a local IP. I can't seem to find a place to configure that. Do I need something like OpenDNS installed or can I edit a config file for that entry?

I have been out of the networking realm for awhile so excuse my lack of knowledge.

Thanks!
 
I think I figured it out. What is the best way to see what entries have been created on the router for local DNS?
 
Try:
Code:
# nslookup cameras.domain.com
Or on the router itself:
Code:
# cat /etc/hosts
# cat /etc/hosts.dnsmasq
