No it is an SRV (service) record use for Microsoft Active Directory
domains.

But, it make no sense to put such a record in /etc/hosts, because etc
hosts is only about host names not service records, so that entry is
basically just useless in /etc/hosts.

(And _ is valid in the names for SRV records).
