⁠External DNS

Configure your DNS to return your host ip for all lookups.

Example (if your DNS utilizes dnsmasq):

• Locate your dnsmasq folder (usually /etc/dnsmasq.d/)
• Create a .conf file (for example: 10-proxy.conf)
• Add the following contents to the file (replace HOST_IP with your actual IP):

address=/#/[HOST_IP]

• Restart DNS
