IS-IT--Management

I am trying to setup Intranet site for the agency. Using IIS manager, I was able to put the site online. It is working fine.

But when users want to go that site, they have to type the address looks like this:
How can I name the site by using a short name, such as "iweb or mysite"? How to make user go to the site without typing the server name. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a DNS environment setup? You can assign a CNAME entry called iweb or mysite as an alias to IISSERVER-NAME
