Description
Steps to reproduce
- add an account
- start sync/upload/download stuff
- add another server dns or url to the nextcloud server
- no place to add the new server url
Expected behaviour
Have the possibility to have many server url alias, example: https://internal-dns.mynextcloud.cloud and https://external-dns.mynextcloud.cloud...
Actual behaviour
No configuration
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?
Due to the introduction of DNS over HTTPs/TLS into Apple/Android device is not possible (or very hard) to use an internal server dns into the private LAN, in order to redirect the nextcloud traffic directly through internal network instead of passing through internet...seems because Apple/Android uses their own (or others) secure dns servers if you internally have non secure dns.
Maybe using more than one server url alias is possible to apply a specific routing strategy for internal or external network or any...
