- Add Hetzner Load Balancer (138.199.128.63) to network architecture diagram
- Update DNS configuration to show all domains pointing to Hetzner LB IP
- Update HTTP/HTTPS traffic flow to show traffic routing through Hetzner LB
- Update last modified date to 2026-08-02
Related to DEV-439.

Added comprehensive documentation of the two-tier load balancing setup:
- Hetzner Cloud Load Balancer (external layer, managed by Hetzner CCM)
- Kubernetes LoadBalancer services (internal layer, k3s ServiceLB)
Key points documented:
- Traffic flow from external client through both LB layers to pod
- Why LoadBalancer service type is required (CCM integration)
- Historical context of the migration from hostPort to Hetzner LB
- Service definitions and port configurations
Updated:
- apps/stalwart/README.md: Added Network Architecture section
- infrastructure/networking/NETWORK_ARCHITECTURE.md: Enhanced Stalwart
section with two-tier architecture details and updated traffic flows
Resolves documentation gap identified in DEV-439.

Created comprehensive network documentation for BasicStack k3s cluster:
- NETWORK_ARCHITECTURE.md: Complete network architecture with diagrams,
node configuration, CNI (Flannel) details, ingress/LoadBalancer setup,
DNS configuration, TLS certificates, network policies, traffic flows,
and troubleshooting procedures
- DNS_REQUIREMENTS.md: Complete DNS record requirements for all services
including A records, MX records, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and PTR records
- NETWORK_VERIFICATION.md: Verification report documenting current state
of all network components with findings and recommendations
Updated infrastructure README with links to new network documentation.
Key findings:
- All worker nodes correctly configured with --node-ip set to private IPs
- Flannel VXLAN properly configured with public IP annotations
- Traefik ingress controller operational
- 16/17 TLS certificates valid (registry-tls needs investigation)
- 3 LoadBalancer services properly configured
- Network policies securing database services
Addresses DEV-225: Verify and document k3s cluster network configuration
Related: DEV-224 (node-ip configuration), DEV-223 (DNS issues)
