No one's dealing with it?

@c-po @jjakob I've found the root cause of the problem. When my domain is written in fully qualified format, there will be one more point in the generated Lua script. There are currently the following solutions to this problem:

a) Use the writing method approved by RFC standard headed by bind, and use the writing method similar to pve.

b) It is required that the user should ignore the last point in the use process, and use the writing method similar to pve

For details, please refer to the following link:

I have prepared a repair pudding, I use the solution of a, I am hesitating whether to mention PR, otherwise, it should be noted in the document that the writing of B should be ignored in the vyos configuration
