Unable to access Traefik Dashboard

I've began to set up Traefik utilising a Traefik.yml and docker-compose.yml from Github. Everything looks like, it's set up: The container in Portainer is created and I get a certificate in my acme.json file. I also get no errors in my logs.

When i try to access the address of the Traefik dashboard, i get a DNS MX error "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN"

This would suggest that there is a fault with DNS and my dashboard is not resolving. My Domain name with Cloudflare resolves but the dashboard doesn't respond to any NS Look up queries.

I'm running OPNSense with Unbound pointing to CloudFlare with Dynamic DNS set up.

I've installed Traefik on my LXC container which also runs my Arr Stack.

Any ideas please? - Is it an opnsense firewall issue? Have i not correctly done something with DNS?

You haven't described your DNS setup at all! Have you created an A (and/or AAAA) record (with CF, assuming they're your DNS hosting provider) for traefik? e.g. traefik.mydomain.com ? Where is OPNsense in this picture? Is traefik behind OPNsense? Are you trying to use your local DNS domain on OPNsense? It doesn't sound like an OPNsense issue, but without more detail, it's impossible to do anything but guess....
