@arichtman because a few people are asking:

.local was never officially reserved for internal networks and is (ab)used by the bonjour/mDNS protocols to do hostname resolution when no TLD is specified.

.internal is now the recommended way to get a TLD for your internal networks. However you will need to use a custom CA if you want TLS to work, or buy a domain and use public CAs if you don't control every device that will connect.

@arichtman Good~

@arichtman
.internal immediately gives the notion that this domain is used for private networks, which is good.

@arichtman 👏

@arichtman with cert-manager and an Issuer? then we can self-serve...
