Issue: #2249

.local domains are special use domains for mDNS and must not be used for other routing purposes,
use .internal instead in documentation.

See RFC 6762 for details: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6762

Another alternative to .internal would be .example domain according to RFC 6761

Hi.

Thanks for the PR.

Do you think it would be possible to use .example rather than .internal as you suggested above ? I think it might be less confusing for the docs sections.

See RFC 6762 for details on mDNS .local domain: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6762
And RFC 6761 for details on .example domain: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6761

Thank you for the example suggestion, i agree it makes even more sense to use that domain.

I changed the commit as suggested.
