How do you guys set internal domains?

Say i dont want to type 192.168.1.100:8096 and want a url instead, say jellyfin.servername - how would I go about that? I don’t want it exposed online via reverse proxy. I don’t need certs. No port forwarding on the router.

How do I type ‘jellyfin.servername’ into a browser and being up the jellyfin dashboard?

Keep in mind you still need to specify the port with this method.

Yeah, how and where? In the docker compose? I have a dozem containers and is love if they were all a.server. b.server, c.server. How can I do this? Pihole DNS records don’t do anything at the port level.

Sorry I meant in your browser. Yes dns does not point to ports.

You would have to use some sort of reverse proxy that is only accessible from internal networks
