# DNS Spoofing

> Use Proxyman DNS Spoofing to send a domain to a different IP address or server while keeping the original URL and Host header unchanged.

## 1. What's it?

DNS Spoofing lets developers:

* Provide a custom DNS for particular domains
* Map a domain to a different IP address or domain

## 2. What is different with Map Remote?

DNS Spoofing is different from [Map Remote](https://proxyman.com/docs/advanced-features/map-remote):

* The `Host` in the request header doesn't change
* The URL doesn't change

On the other hand, Map Remote changes the Host header and the URL to the mapped values.

## 3. How to use it?

1. Open the **Tools** menu -> **DNS Spoofing…**
2. Create a new rule with the **Host Name** and the **New Remote Address**
3. Done ✅
