 if you use $localip, the device will not have DNS outside of your local network.

+based on your configuration, you should probably use $dns_ip

 you only need to do this for devices that have a static ip address, devices that get their ip assigned via DHCP (which is default for most devices, especially wireless ones) get their DNS address from the router.

 because this certificate is not backed by a public certificate authority like letsencrypt, you have to manually trust the root cert on each device you want to use the cloud on, or deal with "certificate untrusted" warnings.
