Creating the custom domain on Gitlab Pages After opening the Deploy > Pages section in the Gitlab panel, you will need to press the New Domain button. This would redirect you to the New Pages domain view. Add your domain name there for example qa-log.com, and switch off the Automatic certificate management option. We will handle the SSL later. Press on Create New Domain and after that, we are presented with the Pages Domain view that gives us some information on the information on how to configure the DNS record.

This was an interesting problem that I have encountered a couple of times so far when using some devices that had only a WiFi connection. We wanted these devices to use a VPN so that we would be able to access resources that are limited only to certain geographical regions, or some that are only limited to the internal VPN. The problem was the fact that we were dealing with devices like TVs and set-top boxes that we didn’t have access to to their OS, so running a VPN directly from the system was not possible.
