ip link add nxc0 type vxlan remote 127.0.0.1 id 12 dstport 50001
your command is sending to port 127.0.0.1 50001
udp2raw -s -l :8443 -r 127.0.0.1:50001 -k "shared secret" -a --raw-mode faketcp
but you server is not really listening at 127.0.0.1 50001
it's not suprising if it's not working.
You setup doesn't follow the client-server pattern, nor is it NAT friendly.
I am not familiar with vxlan setup, can not point out a working fix.
But... If you client has public ip as well maybe you can try to setup 2 udp2raw tunnels: one per direction. (not guarenteed to work)
@Wyk72 You may try running the vxlan over some udp-based protocol(e.g. wireguard), then use udp2raw
to maintain the wg's connection. I have done this for few years and it works well.
I have a VPS that has crippled UDP connectivity (i.e. speed limited), but gets full-band on TCP (nobody seem to know why - not even the ISP).
I'd like to use udp2raw for TCP tunneling, but I don't really need L3, I need L2 connectivity.
I've seen examples of wireguard, but I'd like to know if it's possible to use VXLAN directly instead.
I've tried, but I get the "RTNETLINK answers: File exists" error on setting the VXLAN up.
My setup:
server side:
udp2raw -s -l:8443 -r 127.0.0.1:50001 -k "shared secret" -a --raw-mode faketcp
client side:
udp2raw -c -l 127.0.0.1:50002 -r:8443 -k "shared secret" -a --raw-mode faketcp
The tunnel goes up.
But when I create the vxlan with the usual commends, I do not get any link:
Server side:
ip link add nxc0 type vxlan remote 127.0.0.1 id 12 dstport 50001 ip link set dev nxc0 mtu 1300; ip link set nxc0 up ip addr add 192.168.33.1/24 dev nxc0
Client side: ip link add nxc0 type vxlan remote 127.0.0.1 id 12 dstport 50002 ip link set dev nxc0 mtu 1300; ip link set nxc0 up ip addr add 192.168.33.2/24 dev nxc0
But nothing works ....
Any clues ?
