For our company to get 100+ external IP addresses, the ISP is requesting a
host file.

%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

How can we access it?

As above.

But what I think they want is a simple list of the 100+ servers you have and what Ip addresses they are using. In other words, they want evidence that you need those IPs.

HTH.
