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?

    I ended up doing a similar thing for the same reasons, too many things ignoring my local dns. I ended up creating a subdomain for my house where all the A records had internal ips. I gave out fixed leases to the things with names though instead of dynamic dns updates.

      I have static ips for the server-ish things and few important devices too, but for the rest (swarm of shellys, esp32, etc.) I’m too lazy to maintain the list =)
