Network neophyte here. I have a Peplink Max BR1 Pro 5g and am building a small local home network. Mostly as hobby and experimentation. I enjoy it. Currently I have a small group of dockers running on a device at a local IP 192.168.2.5. I have the BR1 pro setup to route local dns names like plex.name.local to 192.168.2.5, which then hits a reverse proxy to sort out the rest. This is accomplished on the Network page under Local DNS Records. This is cumbersome as I have to add a new record for every small server I route. What I wish to accomplish is one elegant entry that will route all names *.name.local to 192.168.2.5. I Tried using this format in the Local DNS Records and it didn’t work. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
If you want to have wildcard lookup like that, you would probably need to run a DNS server on the docker device & then use the advanced resolver settings to preferentially redirect DNS queries to that DNS server
