How to create a Friendly URL for OpenWrt UI

How can i create a friendly URL to access the openwrt UI instead of IP address.
Expectation : http://my.frindlyurl/ instead of http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci

isn't http://openwrt.lan/ good enough ?

@frollic i am able to access the board using IP only. any configurations needs to update to achieve this? or any tutorials?

it should work out of the box.

is the openwrt device your main router/DNS ?

yes, main router

But is it also configured as your DNS Server on your clients?

You can choose any hostname you wish by changing the hostname on this page

http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/system/system

Or

http://openwrt.lan/cgi-bin/luci/admin/system/system
