Explanation: An IP address for the website you requested could not be found. As a result, it was not possible to access the site.

Try the following:
Refresh page: Search for the page again by clicking the Refresh button. The timeout may have occurred due to Internet congestion.
Check spelling: Check that you typed the Web page address correctly. The address may have been mistyped.
Access from a link: If there is a link to the page you are looking for, try accessing the page from that link.
If you are still not able to view the requested page, try contacting your administrator or Helpdesk.

Correct it come now by ip address only, i try by alias name that is in IIS,also i try by ip address with alias.
Very thanks paulmacd.
but what i do if i need to but alis name instead ip address?
You need to publish the host name in DNS somewhere you (and anyone else you want) can find it.  So if this is an internal-only site, you could publish the hostname in your local DNS server.  If this is something you want people to find via the Internet, you'll need to publish the host name in a public DNS server.
This is right,Change servername.
Thanks paulmacd
Happy to help!
