What is vpngw?

==============

vpngw is a project to build a VPN gateway and intranet setup for (potentially

untrusted) users accessing the internet in a secure and private way.

High VPN throughput (>= 100MBit/s) and easy VPN usability were the main goals.

The project is currently mostly documentation and configuration / script

examples. So there is nothing you can just install, but it at least will

take you less time than me.

Applications

------------

- at home: for family, friends, visitors

- easy VPN selection by choosing the right LAN / wireless LAN

- later, when more stable: small hotels, restaurants, ...

Components

----------

- a VPN gateway router

 

  - uses Debian Linux on standard PC/Laptop hardware

  - relies on a external modem or router for internet access,

    does not deal with establishing a internet connection by itself

  - establishes one or multiple VPN tunnels to VPN providers

  - when using multiple VPNs, offers simple CPU and VPN throughput load

    distribution

- LAN switch and wireless LAN access point

  - TP-Link WR-841N(D) with OpenWrt (same HW as often used by Freifunk project)

  - multiple wireless LAN networks (SSIDs) on 1 device, each VPN has specific SSID

  - multiple LAN ports, each VPN has a specific LAN port

  - separation of VPNs is done using VLANs

- alternatively, Ubiquiti Access Points (UAP) + optional separate switch

 

  - UAPs have VLAN support and can be centrally managed

  - if you need wired ports for the users, use a manageable switch with VLANs
