Hello, I recently switched my home network to use 4x OpenWRT-based Access Points. I have an Ubiquiti EdgeRouter that is configured to assign static IPs via DHCP to the access points. I also have DNSmasq enabled so that I can do local hostname lookups.
*I cannot get auto-registration to work using the local DNS hostname but using the MAC address directly works.* E.g. my access point is named: ap_master.agarwalla.local and has a local IP: 10.0.1.5 I can successfully do an nslookup of ap_master.agarwalla.local from the OpenWisp server: nilesh@OpenWisp:~$ nslookup ap_master.agarwalla.local Server: 10.0.1.1 Address: 10.0.1.1#53 Name: ap_master.agarwalla.local Address: 10.0.1.5 I installed and setup OpenWisp and also configured /etc/config/openwisp on the OpenWRT router: config controller 'http' option url 'https://openwisp.agarwalla.local' option verify_ssl '0' option uuid '' option key '' option shared_secret 'XXXX' Auto-registration fails as follows: root@ap_master:~# logread -f Thu Jan 14 14:45:03 2021 daemon.info openwisp: Registering device... Thu Jan 14 14:45:03 2021 daemon.err openwisp: Registration failed! { "name": [ "Must be either a valid hostname or mac address." ] } Using the MAC address directly DOES work, though....but then I can't change the hostname via the web interface: [image: Screenshot 2021-01-14 094911.png] Any thoughts on how to get this all to work with the local DNS hostname?
