Try using something under .local and see how much fun you have.
That's what a former employer had set up for their internal environments.
Worked great until mDNS came along and Apple devices insisted that .local had to go through mDNS rather than our DNS servers.
The Mac users had a constant stream of complaints because of it: "I can't connect to the printer", "Shared drives don't work", "I can't access the CI environment in Safari/Chrome/whatever"
- globular-toast 5y agoPlace I worked at set up the network using .local around 2010 when mDNS was already common. Turns out the admin had seen/heard of .local and thought that's what it was for. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing...
