The address of the vpn interface is calculated in the style of modified EUI-64, based on a virtual mac address. This virtual mac address consists of 0x00 as first byte and the other five bytes are taken from the first bytes of md5sum(base64 encoded public key). The algorithm was taken by the ffmuc, with a slight difference. ffmuc calculated the result of md5sum(base64 encoded public key + '\n') which was interpreted as accidential fault and therefore dropped. Example: - Public-Key: "gP3VJnTTvnQut+z4O+m0N9RgMyXbgyUbUkF3E3TKX2w=" - Address: "fe80::02ca:b8ff:fedc:2eb3" The following interfaces are used for wireguard: - wg_mesh -> wireguard interface - mesh-vpn -> vxlan iface on top of wg_mesh If you use this new feature, make sure the NTP servers in your site config are publicly reachable. This is necessary, since wireguard requires correct time before the vpn connection is established. Therefore gluon performs ntp time synchronisation via WAN before it establishes the vpn connection. Therefore the NTP servers have to be publicly reachable (and not only via mesh). |

Gluon
Gluon is a firmware framework to build preconfigured OpenWrt images for public mesh networks.
Getting started
We have a huge amount of documentation over at https://gluon.readthedocs.io/.
If you're new to Gluon and ready to get your feet wet, have a look at the Getting Started Guide.
Gluon's developers frequent an IRC chatroom at #gluon on hackint. There is also a webchat that allows for uncomplicated access from within your browser.
Issues & Feature requests
Before opening an issue, make sure to check whether any existing issues (open or closed) match. If you're suggesting a new feature, drop by on IRC or our mailinglist to discuss it first.
We maintain a Roadmap for the future development of Gluon.
Use a release!
Please refrain from using the master branch for anything else but development purposes!
Use the most recent release instead. You can list all releases by running git tag
and switch to one by running git checkout v2021.1 && make update.
If you're using the autoupdater, do not autoupdate nodes with anything but releases. If you upgrade using random master commits the nodes might break eventually.
