Im trying to setup a DNS record in Opnsense to forward ex:( ***.local.mydomain.com ) to (192.168.1.777(nginx proxy)) but every option in Opnsense that I try it doesn’t forward to my reverse proxy machine.

I have Unbound,AdguardHome and wireguard installed on the Opnsense.

Unbound port is 53 Adguard port is 5353

I tried going to: Services>Dnsmasq DNS>settings>host override, but it didn’t seem to work I also tried logging to AdguardHome>filter>DNS rewrite, but it also didn’t seem to work

What am I doing wrong, when I type (nslookup *.local.mydomain.com) I only get the response “server can’t find *.local.mydomain.com”

Solved!!

In Opnsense I created a rule to forward my domain to an IP. You just need to go to Services>unbound>overrides>host overrides and add your domain

Since unbound is your primary DNS where clients connect, set the override there.

Go to Services > Unbound > Overrides, and add a host override. Then you’ll get a window to put the host, domain, and IP.
