Using VestaCP as a local DNS Server

Hello,

Not sure if im posting this in the right place or not, so please forgive me if I am...

But, I was wondering if Vesta could be setup and used as a local (LAN) dns server? In my home network, I have roughly 13 different connected devices (Cameras, PCs, switches, etc) and its a pain to remember what IP is associated with a certain device, but all my devices have static network names, so I was wondering if Vesta could be configured as a local DNS server?

Ive used vesta for years to manage several of my domains, and I absolutely love it. So I figure there wouldnt be much difference in setting up Vesta in one of my local VMs and using it as a DNS controller? Would there be anything particular I would need to configure, or would it be as straight forward as configuing Vesta on my actual FQDN server that has my websites?

Thanks in Advance!

It is possible you just have to improvise it a bit (customize) to make possible the things you need to do outside of it.
