Code:

  # store the names in an array
  # keyed by the IPs
  iton[$1] = $2
  next
  }
# if the IP has an associated name
# assign its value to $1
# otherwise just return the record
# 1 -> true -> print $0  
($1 in iton && $1 = iton[$1]) || 1
  ' file2 file1 > _tmp_file_ && 
      mv -- _tmp_file_ file1
