Unable to access WebGUI - redirects to https://hostname.local and disallows access via IP

Hello All!

Context:

• Version 6.10.0-rc2
• Using pFSense
• Previously had no issues
• No physical access to machine
• Latest Syslog https://pastebin.com/raw/0Q2wmkD6
• Latest ident.cfg https://pastebin.com/raw/6p71Nms0

Problem:

When I go to the servers IP, 10.0.0.40, i get redirected to "https://sigma.local" which fails, using curl locally on 10.0.0.40 I get a response of 302, redirected to sigma.local.

sigma.local isn't resolved, possibly an mDNS issue...?

Previously I've been able to access the server via https://10.0.0.40 (and sigma.local I think) so I'm not sure what has changed.

Work Around:

SSH in, disable SSL, restart, access via http://10.0.0.40:80 successfully.

Things Tried:

• Changed LOCAL_TLD to "" 
• Accessing via a Dockerized Firefox browser machine on the local network, rather than via my pfSense VPN
• Using a private browser tab (incase some weird caching issue)
• Changing the DHCP lease to 10.0.0.80, incase again, there is a weird caching issue 

Fortunately I have a short term work around, but I'd really appreciate any ideas thanks and happy holidays/Christmas/whatnot!
