Comment on How would I set up local DNS or DNS rewrite
CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 1 month agoIt’s possible but it’s an extra pain in the butt.
Internally, have you tried pointing the DNS directly to the ngnix server, not the router? There’s no reason to have that extra hop (I don’t think).

There’s an idea. I may play with it tomorrow.bill be back on the road, so I’m not keen on doing too much when I can’t fix it haha. But right now the router is DNS, so when I did traceroute there was only one stop. But it was the SSL termination that got me. I might be able to download the stream module for Nginx. I think if I wanted to be optimal I may have to totally restructure that part…

Well yes, it is one hop, because you’ve got the router doing TLS termination. Inside your network you point to the server that has the TLS certs. Outside of the network you do port forwarding, or use a tunnel with cloudflare agents.
Why is the router involved at all? It’s all local traffic. The external traffic comes through the cloud flare tunnel, right? Maybe I’m not understanding the architecture you’ve got.
