After a lot of searching and trying I [Phil/ALS7] finnaly got a working config

Features

  • dn42 DNS

How-To

--> still work in Progress

1) you need to create all required fields in the registry --> look at howto/Getting startet page

The data i used are the following:

Own ASN: AS4242422684 Own IPv4: 172.20.4.64/27 Own IPv6: fd33:ac1d:d1ce::/48

2) get a peer --> ask nice @irc

3) You need following data

--tunnel options, secret key --ASN from the peer (in this example i use remote-as XXXXX) --ip's

...

start a ssh session to your router

copy vpn key to /config/auth/giveITaName -- Create folder if needed

configure set interface openssh vtun0 set interfaces openvpn vtun0 mode site-to-site set interfaces openvpn vtun0 local-port 1194 //you get the port from your peer set interfaces openvpn vtun0 remote-port 1194 //you get the port from your peer set interfaces openvpn vtun0 local-address 172.20.4.64 //your ip set interfaces openvpn vtun0 remote-address X.X.X.X //from your peer set interfaces openvpn vtun0 remote-host X.X.X.Y //from your peer set interfaces openvpn vtun0 shared-secret-key-file /config/auth/giveITaName // your keyfile set interfaces openvpn vtun0 openvpn-option "--comp-lzo" //if your peer support compression commit save

Now the ipv4 tunnel should be up&running
