The --nat switch accepts none, upnp and extip:<IP>. extip accepts only IP address, not DNS host names. Currently this fails due to Rust inference. I don't see any reason why IPs are preferred over host names. When your infrastructure is more dynamic (e.g. teh cloud) host names are usually more stable than IPs.
