I have an Asus GT-AX11000, which from my understanding eliminates any possibility of installing Merlin-WRT and making this task trivial. 
My Asus router advertises itself as the DNS for all devices on my network. I'd like to be able to set a custom DNS entry for local devices such that ddns.example.com points to 10.0.0.14 while inside my network, however outside my network (and therefore on all other DNS servers) ddns.example.com points to my Asus's static public IP. I've got the second part down which was simple enough with a Google Domain's domain name, however I can't for the life of me figure out how to setup something on my router that redirects it from within the network. It works if I manually edit the router's hosts file, however that doesn't seem to survive a reboot. I'm guessing the hosts file is created on boot from a template file, which I can't seem to find. Anyone know where that is, or if there's some web gui option that I overlooked that would make this super easy?
