I just stick all my DNS records in a normal DNS server. In my case I’m terraforming some Route53 zones. So I havd a subdomain off a real domain I own that I use for LAN gear and they all have real DNS. For ports, anything that can just be run on 443 on its own VM, I do that. For things that either can’t be made to run on 443, or can’t do their own TLS, etc, I have a VM running nginx that handles certificates and reverse proxying.
