Well, ideally OpenWRT would use mDNS to announce this name, perhaps in addition to DNS on the LAN side. So it should be used because it is reserved for mDNS. (Resolving .local via DNS might result in some mDNS clients disabling themselves, and .internal is not yet decided, so keeping openwrt.lan might be practical.) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Br, Erik _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list Bloat@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
