Private VPN between nodes over libremesh #115

Closed lucapost closed 7 years ago

lucapost commented 7 years ago

Hi all, in past time I had private vpn with tincd/fastd running over my mesh nodes, on firmware openwrt based. Over all nodes i have a bridge for private network with tunnel interface, one ethernet and one wifi interface. The goal is setup private service using only single device with libremesh and private networks. Recently i see interesting iusse about: https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/92 This is my little features request :-)

Thanks, Luca.

Thanks, we will have your request into account.

Encryption and a private network (now open to external nodes willing to join) can be achieved with AP-Sta WPA2 blackbone (already implemented in LiMe I think), and also with the encryption options of 802.11s (how does it work? with a shared secret passphrase?).

Having a VPN with Tinc was one of the ideas proposed for GSoC this year and would allow for external nodes to enter the VPN once their key is somehow accepted.

I would close this issue as duplicate of #99, anyone disagrees?
