I have a use-case in which the web servers are behind a Load Balancer (LB), and the server is unable to request pages from itself via the external DNS name. I want to modify all URLs containing the external DNS to use an internal DNS.

Patch is forthcoming.

The feature in your load balancer to solve this issue is typically named "loopback" or similar. No change required to do things wrong with bandaids.

Fix your broken load balancer, please.
