Hi,
Pardon if this is a stupid question, but I am not a networking expert. I want to use the local domain specified in OPNsense for the services on my LAN, but it doesn't seem to work.
For example, I have the hostname "firewall" specified in general settings and "jayc.lan" specified under domain.
This works and I am able to reach the WebUI at http://firewall.jayc.lan but it doesn't work for any other services.
I have a number of DHCP static mappings configured with the hostname field filled out, but I can't reach them at http://hostname.jayc.lan or http://hostname or really anything actually other than by using the IP.
Is this meant to be the default functionality? I assume it would be very beneficial and probably default functionality to be able to use the domain? Especially for non-static services...
Is there a way I can enable the above to use the local domain specified? What am I missing?
Thanks in advance!
What dns server did you setup on opnsense? Unbound? If so you add a records in there or ptr records.
Thanks for the reply!
This appears to have led me in the correct direction.
I enabled two checkboxes to get this working:
1. Register DHCP Leases
2. Register DHCP Static Mappings
Thanks!
No worries.
