Hi Praveen
This should help
>> Configuring a Custom URL | Tableau Software
Your IT admin needs to configure the DNS alias.

2. Re: Need to change the tableau server URL
Thanks a lot Mark
One doubt , so only IT admin/network team can be able to change the URL?
Can we change the URL on our own? do we have any option?

Sorry for the confusion...anyone can (not just IT admin), its more about access & knowledge - do you have the administrator rights on the right machine, and do you know what you're doing
It depends on the company setup, and your knowledge.
Personally while I know what DNS is (domain name service - it translates ip address 1.123.456 to http:www.website.com, How Domain Name Servers Work | HowStuffWorks ), i wouldn't be confident enough to change anything like the server URL, so I left it to our IT guy, while I built some dashboards
Hope that helps
Cheers
