The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Address Bar' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

You can open about:config and create a boolean preference named browser.fixup.domainsuffixwhitelist.lan set to true and that will tell Firefox not to search for .lan domain names. You can also append a trailing / when you type the name in the address bar. For context, see the following bugs:
- Bug 1634650 and its duplicates
- Bug 1080682
- Bug 1642435 -- this also contains preference overrides for other similar situations
I'll mark this as a dupe of bug 1634650.
