Recommendation for a Wireguard Mesh network
(lemmy.ml)
Tailscale.
I don't understand people compaing a mesh network to simple wireguard. It is not the same.
to simple wireguard? there are wireguard based mesh network solutions out there
Most of them are, thats not the point.
in my understanding OP was not comparing it to simple wireguard
It really isn't. I do agree that for most purposes a static network with some central public nodes is the answer, but I want something more dynamic
Tailscale is the best with netbird in a close second if you want to self host, headscale works great.
I just use ansible to generate all wireguard configs and deploy them. Works great, but then, all my devices have static ips.
WireGuard works great for that.
I use NetBird ist easy, free and powerfull
NetMaker is like Tailscale. It uses Kernel wireguard unlike Tailslace which uses user space wireguard.
The only downside is that you need to pay for it or you can host your own server (but is kinda tricky to do)
Fuck netmaker. They removed features from the free self hosted community version and made them enterprise only. They made the self hosted version nearly useless
Took me forever to finally get off of it and switch to OG wireguard
I didn't know NetBird existed. I may switch to it because it seems to be literally the same as NetMaker
The only advantage netmaker had over any other mesh vpn was the ability to add regular wireguard clients to access the network without a specific client.
Tbh I miss this feature it would be nice to see it in netbird.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
