PR60X Managing hosts file

Question

Hello, for some reasons i would need to update the hosts file of the touteur ( cannot access lan website using names and ssl with wireguard since i left cloudflare for a cheaper solution ).

But since we cannot access it with ssh nor telnet.

Is it possible to make a option for updating the hosts file directly from the web interface ?

Or is it absolutly not possible ?

Well kinda strange but it works after i moved the web server port from the mx510txp to one of the pr60x port.

And without the loopback i had lost insight mangement too. I just realised when the blue light came back after switch the port.

Anyway would be so much easier to be able to update hosts from web interface.

Well i was wrong it solved one part of the problem as accessing local somme application using port 443 on server pinpointing to wan adress.&nbsp;But since i used ip filtering to access toses server it doesnt work when i tried to access them using vpn I tried ipsec,openvpn and wireguard but none can access those url.

Hi Jimbo, Could you please let us know exact issues so that we can try to reproduce the issue and see if we can have workaround, for examples:LAN (or WAN) has issue to access LAN (or WAN) using IP (or DDNS Domain name) through VPN (or not) - If there is issue, what is the symptom? Thanks.
