wich OS is the recommended one for production use btw? ubuntu?

jolly-london-20127

agreed, and we recently got running on openwrt. Main issue is just there are so many different types of router OS's. It's tough to maintain support for all of them with a small team.

ubuntu 20.04 is the recommended server OS

did you try installing it on debian 11 yet?

jolly-london-20127

11/09/2021, 9:09 PM

should be fine

jolly-london-20127

11/09/2021, 9:09 PM

really just needs wireguard, docker, and docker-compose

early-rain-79739

11/09/2021, 9:09 PM

or do you know any problems with it....

ok production deployment recommandation ist docker install?

jolly-london-20127

Depends on if you want HA for production. Most reliable way to get HA with Netmaker is on k8s, since we have helm charts.

jolly-london-20127

11/09/2021, 9:11 PM

You can do HA with straight docker as well, just requires more manual configuration

jolly-london-20127

early-rain-79739

we have non-container instructions, though they may be a bit outdated

early-rain-79739

11/09/2021, 9:12 PM

i cann look up in the container für configurations and packages i think

sweet thanks, i can take some notes for a debian 11 install if that would be helpfull to you?

jolly-london-20127

11/09/2021, 9:13 PM

that would be very helpful

jolly-london-20127

11/09/2021, 9:13 PM

the docs are definitely outdated. They still mention MongoDB, which we no longer support

early-rain-79739

11/09/2021, 9:14 PM

okay then PR incomming sooner or later

and you've convinced me to attempt compiling on freebsd. Will let you know how that goes.

if you can write that as a feature on your page that it runs and implements well with opensense and pfsense, you target automatic 2 of the most adopted opensource firewalls running worldwide i think

so if you want attention (and you defenitly deserve it for the project) then this could be low hanging fruit!

if you ever need an network engineer / ops guy with 15 years work experience, because your drowning in work, hit me up and i can send you my profile page and chances are that i would love to contribute when not working in a project atm 🙂

lately i migrated a lot of environments from ipsec to wireguard for good money and your product has potential to fill the gap thats missing for most admins out there

jolly-london-20127

Good to hear!
