Sure, why not?
You probably won't get a plan that's smarter than a nestloop, but I
imagine you'll have few enough rows in network_names that it won't
matter.
One potential problem is if there could be overlapping entries in
network_names --- the join would give you multiple rows for any
log entry that matches more than one network_names entry. You
could fix that using a subselect with LIMIT 1, as long as you
weren't too picky about which name got reported.
