+DNS caching
+===========
+
+User experience may be greatly improved when dns is accelerated. Also, it
+seems like a good idea to keep the number of packages being exchanged
+between node and gateway as small as possible. In order to do this, a
+DNS cache may be used on a node. The dnsmasq instance listening on port
+53 on the node will be reconfigured to answer requests, use a list of
+upstream servers and a specific cache size if the options listed below are
+added to site.conf. Upstream servers are the DNS servers which are normally
+used by the nodes to resolve hostnames (e.g. gateways/supernodes).
+
+There are the following settings:
+    servers
+    cacheentries
+
+To use the node's DNS server, both options should be set. The node will cache at
+most 'cacheentries' many DNS records in RAM. The 'servers' list will be used to
+resolve the received DNS queries if the request cannot be answered from
+cache. Gateways should announce the "next node" address via DHCP and RDNSS (if
+any). Note that not setting 'servers' here will lead to DNS not working: Once
+the gateways all announce the "next node" address for DNS, there is no way for
+nodes to automatically determine DNS servers. They have to be baked into the
+firmware.
+
+If these settings do not exist, the cache is not initialized and RAM usage will
+not increase.
+
+When next_node.name is set, an A record and an AAAA record for the
+next-node IP address are placed in the dnsmasq configuration. This means that
+the content of next_node.name may be resolved even without upstream connectivity.
+It is suggested to use the same name as the DNS server provides:
+e.g. nextnode.location.community.example.org (This way the name also works if a
+client uses static DNS Servers). Hint: If next_node.name does not contain a dot
+some browsers would open the searchpage instead.
+
+::
+
+  dns = {
+    cacheentries = 5000,
+    servers = { '2001:4860:4860::8888', '2001:4860:4860::8844' },
+  },
+
+  next_node = {
+    name = { 'nextnode.location.community.example.org', 'nextnode', 'nn' },
+    ip6 = '2001:db8:8::1',
+    ip4 = '198.51.100.1',
+  }
+
+
+Each cache entry will occupy about 90 bytes of RAM.

-DNS forwarder
-=============
-
-A Gluon node can be configured to act as a DNS forwarder. Requests for the
-next-node hostname(s) can be answered locally, without querying the upstream
-resolver.
-
-**Note:** While this reduces answer time and allows to use the next-node
-hostname without upstream connectivity, this feature should not be used for
-next-node hostnames that are FQDN when the zone uses DNSSEC.
-
-One or more upstream resolvers can be configured in the *dns.servers* setting.
-When *next_node.name* is set, A and/or AAAA records for the next-node IP
-addresses are placed in the dnsmasq configuration.

+It is possible to set up a private WLAN that bridges the uplink port and is separated from the mesh network.
+Please note that you should not enable Wired Mesh on the uplink port at the same time.
+
+The private WLAN is encrypted using WPA2 by default. On devices with enough flash and a supported radio,
+WPA3 or WPA2/WPA3 mixed-mode can be used instead of WPA2. For this to work, the ``wireless-encryption-wpa3``
+feature has to be enabled as a feature.
+
+It is recommended to enable IEEE 802.11w management frame protection for WPA2/WPA3 networks, however this
+can lead to connectivity problems for older clients. In this case, management frame protection can be

+Methods

-From the site configuration fastd can be allowed to offer
-toggleable encryption in the config mode with the intent to
-increase throughput, although in practice the gain is minimal.
+fastd offers various different connection "methods" with different
+security properties that can be configured in the site configuration.
 
-**Site configuration:**
+The following methods are currently recommended:
 
-1) Add the feature ``web-mesh-vpn-fastd`` in ``site.mk``
-2) Set ``mesh_vpn.fastd.configurable = true`` in ``site.conf``
-3) Optionally add ``null`` to the ``mesh_vpn.fastd.methods`` table if you want "Performance mode" as default (not recommended)
+- ``salsa2012+umac``: Encrypted + authenticated
+- ``null+salsa2012+umac``: Unencrypted, authenticated
+- ``null@l2tp``: Unencrypted, unauthenticated
 
-**Gateway configuration:**
+Multiple methods can be listed in ``site.conf``. The first listed method
+supported by both the node and its peer will be used.
 
-1) Prepend the ``null`` cipher in fastd's method list
+The use of the ``null@l2tp`` method with offloading enabled can provide a
+considerable performance gain, especially on weaker embedded hardware.
+For L2TP offloading, the ``mesh-vpn-fastd-l2tp`` feature needs to be enabled in
+``site.mk``.
 
 
-**Config Mode:**
-The resulting firmware will allow users to choose between secure (encrypted) and fast (unencrypted) transport.

+Gateway / Supernode Configuration
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+When only using the ``null`` or ``null@l2tp`` methods without offloading,
+simply add these methods to the front of the method list. ``null@l2tp``
+should always appear before ``null`` in the configuration when both are enabled.
+fastd v22 or newer is needed for the ``null@l2tp`` method.
+
+It is often not necessary to enable L2TP offloading on supernodes for
+performance reasons. Nodes using offloading can communicate with supernodes that
+don't use offloading as long as both use the ``null@l2tp`` method.
+
+
+.. _vpn-gateway-configuration-offloading:
+
+Offloading on Gateways / Supernodes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-**Unix socket:**
-To confirm whether the correct cipher is being used, fastds unix
-socket can be interrogated, after installing for example `socat`.
+To enable L2TP offloading on the supernodes, it is recommended to study the
+fastd documentation section pertaining to the `offload configuration option
+<https://fastd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/manual/config.html#option-offload>`_.
 
-::
+However, the important changes to the fastd config on your Supernode are:
+
+    - | Set ``mode multitap;``
+      | Every peer gets their own interface.
+
+    - | Replace ``interface "foo":`` with ``interface "peer-%k";``
+      | ``%k`` is substituted for a portion of the peers public key.
+
+    - | Set ``offload l2tp yes;``
+      | This tells fastd to use the l2tp kernel module.
+
+    - | Set ``persist interface no;``
+      | This tells fastd to only keep interfaces around while the connection is active.
+
+Note that in ``multitap`` mode, which is required when using L2TP offloading,
+fastd will create one interface per peer on the supernode's. This allows
+offloading the L2TP forwarding into the kernel space. But this also means added
+complexity with regards to handling those interfaces.
+
+There are two main options on how you can handle this:
+
+    -  create ``on up`` and ``on down`` hooks
+
+        - to handle interface setup and destruction
+        - preferably using the async keyword, so hooks are not blocking fastd
+
+    - use a daemon like systemd-networkd
+
+Examples for both options can be found in the
+`Wiki <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/wiki/fastd-l2tp-offloading-on-supernodes>`_.
+
+Configurable Method
+"""""""""""""""""""
+
+From the site configuration, fastd can be allowed to offer
+toggleable encryption in the config mode with the intent to
+increase throughput.
+
+There is also an older unprotected method ``null``. Use of the newer
+``null@l2tp`` method is generally recommended over ``null``, as the
+performance gains provided by the latter (compared to the encrypted
+and authenticated methods) are very small.
+
+Site configuration
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+1)
+  Add the feature ``web-mesh-vpn-fastd`` in ``site.mk``
+2)
+  Set ``mesh_vpn.fastd.configurable = true`` in ``site.conf``
+3)
+  Optionally, add ``null@l2tp`` to the ``mesh_vpn.fastd.methods`` table if you want
+  "Performance mode" as default (not recommended)

+
+WireGuard
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+In order to support WireGuard in Gluon, a few technologies are glued together.
+
+**VXLAN:** As Gluon typically relies on batman-adv, the Mesh VPN has to provide
+OSI Layer 2 transport. But WireGuard is an OSI Layer 3 tunneling protocol, so
+additional technology is necessary here. For this, we use VXLAN. In short, VXLAN
+is a well-known technology to encapsulate ethernet packages into IP packages.
+You can think of it as kind of similar to VLAN, but on a different layer. Here,
+we use VXLAN to transport batman-adv traffic over WireGuard.
+
+**wgpeerselector**: To connect all gluon nodes to each other, it is common to
+create a topology where each gluon node is connected to one of the available
+gateways via Mesh VPN respectively. To achieve this, the gluon node should be
+able to select a random gateway to connect to. But such "random selection of a
+peer" is not implemented in WireGuard by default. WireGuard only knows static
+peers. Therefore the *wgpeerselector* has been developed. It randomly selects a
+gateway, tries to establish a connection, and if it fails, tries to connect
+to the next gateway. This approach has several advantages, such as load
+balancing VPN connection attempts and avoiding problems with offline gateways.
+More information about the wgpeerselector and its algorithm can be found
+`here <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/packages/blob/main/net/wgpeerselector/README.md>`__.
+
+On the gluon node both VXLAN and the wgpeerselector are well integrated and no
+explicit configuration of those tools is necessary, once the general WireGuard
+support has been configured.
+
+Attention must by paid to time synchronization. As WireGuard
+performs checks on timestamps in order to avoid replay attacks, time must
+be synchronized before the Mesh VPN connection is established. This means that
+the NTP servers specified in your site.conf must be publicly available (and not
+only through the mesh). Be aware that if you fail this, you may not directly see
+negative effects. Only when a previously connected node reboots the effect
+comes into play, as the gateway still knows about the old timestamp of the gluon
+node.
+
+.. _gluon-mesh-vpn-key-translate:
+
+gluon-mesh-vpn-key-translate
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+Many communities already possess a collection of active fastd-keys when they
+plan migrating their community to WireGuard.
+These public keys known on the server-side can be derived into their WireGuard
+equivalent using `gluon-mesh-vpn-key-translate <https://github.com/AiyionPrime/gluon-mesh-vpn-key-translate>`__.
+The routers do the necessary reencoding of the private key seamlessly
+when updating firmware from fastd to the WireGuard variant.
+
+Gateway / Supernode Configuration
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+On the gateway side, a software called *wireguard-vxlan-glue* is necessary. It
+is a small daemon that dynamically adds and removes forwarding rules for VXLAN
+interfaces, so traffic is sent correctly into the WireGuard interface. Thereby
+the forwarding rules are only installed if a client is connected, so
+unnecessary traffic in the kernel is avoided. The source can be found
+`here <https://github.com/freifunkh/wireguard-vxlan-glue/>`__.

 Commandline
 ===========
 
+Starting with release 2022.1, the wired network configuration is rebuilt from ``/etc/config/gluon``
+upon each ``gluon-reconfigure``.
+Therefore the network configuration is overwritten at least with every firmware upgrade.
+
+Every interface has a list of roles assigned to it which can be ``client``, ``mesh`` or ``uplink``.
+
+When the client role is assigned to an interface in combination with other roles
+(like 'client', 'mesh' in the Mesh-on-LAN example below), the other roles take
+precedence, enabling mesh but not client in the previous example.
+
+The setup/config-mode interface is every interface with the role ``client`` which makes removing
+it from interfaces not only unnecessary, but generally unrecommended.
+
+In order to make persistent changes to the router's configuration it's necessary to:
+
+* change the sections in ``/etc/config/gluon`` e.g. using uci (see examples below)
+* call ``gluon-reconfigure`` to re-generate ``/etc/config/network``
+* apply the networking changes, either through executing ``service network restart`` or by performing a ``reboot``
+
 Enable Mesh-on-WAN::
 
-  uci set network.mesh_wan.disabled=0
-  uci commit network
+  uci add_list gluon.iface_wan.role='mesh'

+  uci set gluon.iface_lan_vlan8=interface
+  uci set gluon.iface_lan_vlan8.name='eth0.8'
+  uci add_list gluon.iface_lan_vlan8.role='mesh'

+Other VLAN-interfaces could be configured on the same parent interface in order to have
+all three roles available on ``eth0`` without having them interfere with each other.
+This feature comes in especially handy for the persistent configuration of virtual machines
+as offloader for bigger installations.

+==================================
+
+When package *gluon-config-mode-geo-location-osm* is enabled, the configuration wizard will
+try to load an OSM-based map to allow the user to specify the node location.
+Loading the map requires a working internet connection, for example via WLAN
+(while connected to the Gluon node via Ethernet).
