It's really quite nice, considering that most commercial routers are woefully underpowered. At some point it might be nice to try and use the XDP in eBPF to handle the firewall as efficiently as possible, but honestly this is working pretty well as is:

Tim DeHerrera (Feb 06 2024 at 20:46):yeah only thing not working atm is local dns resolution. I'll probably try to work that out soon, I'm sure I missed something simple. Even so, I mostly rely on nebula for private network communication so its not urgent for me.
Also, I don't expose any ports to the outside world or even respond to pings.
