* feat(vpn): hot add/remove WireGuard portal clients without restart
WireGuard portal clients were frozen at instance construction: the
engine slot maps, host key table, and PortalModule state were all
immutable after startup, so any client change required recreating the
whole instance and dropping every established session.
Wire dynamic client management through the existing config-patch
channel (ConfigRpc.patch_config -> apply_config_patch), following the
same pattern as connectors, port forwards, and proxy networks:
- proto: InstanceConfigPatch gains repeated VpnPortalClientPatch
(Add/Remove/Clear by client name)
- engine: slot maps move under an RwLock with a free-index allocator;
add_client/remove_client recycle indices, mark removed slots retired,
and expire active sessions so Core tears down the attached peer via
the regular channel-close path (credential revocation and disconnect
events included); untouched clients keep their sessions intact. The
retired flag is re-checked under the session lock so a datagram that
races with removal cannot resurrect a session
- host: WireGuardPortalHost derives keys deterministically per name
(HKDF), keeps a mutable client table for render_client_config, and
forwards updates to the live engine; changed clients are re-added so
they re-handshake into a fresh generation with the new virtual IP or
groups
- PortalModule: client set, statuses, and session locks become shared
mutable state; run_session resolves clients from the shared map at
accept time; update_clients() validates against a caller-supplied
runtime snapshot. An empty client set is legal in every lifecycle
stage, so clearing all clients never produces a configuration that
fails instance recreation
- config_patch: apply_vpn_portal_client_patches mutates the candidate
TOML; the sub-patch runs last and is deep-validated and hot-applied
before the candidate commits, so a rejected client set leaves neither
the shared model nor the live portal changed, and validation sees the
fully patched state including routes and node IPv4 from the same
request. Rejects patches when no portal is configured or a removed
client does not exist
- cli: vpn-portal add-client/remove-client/clear-clients subcommands
Tests: engine index recycling, module update validation/state/host
notification, TOML patch application, and a three-node integration test
that adds a second WireGuard client live, removes the first while the
second stays online, and asserts rejected patches leave the shared
model unchanged.
* feat(web): reconcile WireGuard portal client edits as hot patches
The web console reconciles desired network config against the running
instance and patches it in place when possible. VPN portal changes were
not part of that: any client edit made the base configs differ, so every
save recreated the instance and dropped all established sessions.
Exclude vpn_portal_config from the base comparison and diff its clients
by name instead. Client add/remove/change now produces
VpnPortalClientPatch entries (removals first, changed clients as
remove+add) applied through the existing PatchConfig channel. Listener
identity changes (address or private key) and enabling or disabling the
portal still fall back to a full instance recreate, since those change
the listener lifecycle.
* feat(web/gui): map portal client patches to frontend RPC backends
Extend the RemoteClient seam with add/remove/clear VPN portal client
operations so frontend hosts can drive the same PatchConfig channel as
the CLI. There is deliberately no dedicated editing UI: the config form
stays the single editing surface (aligned with port forwards), and
these methods exist for programmatic and future use.
- web console: JSON proxy-rpc to ConfigRpcService.patch_config with
VpnPortalClientPatch entries (pbjson string enum actions)
- desktop GUI: patch_vpn_portal_clients tauri command forwarding the
same patch through the typed ConfigRpc client
* feat(peer): support protocol-agnostic attached peers
Add locally attached peers backed by independent, peer-level portable
managers and authenticated in-process ring connections. Carry trusted
connection provenance through packet admission so attached relay
privileges cannot be forged through packet headers.
Let every peer manager own ACL loading, sanitized policy updates, route
refresh, and runtime cleanup. In Secure Mode, grant attached identities
ephemeral credentials instead of sharing administrator and group secrets.
* feat(vpn): add reusable attached-peer portal runtime
Add a protocol-neutral portal runtime that converts authenticated client
sessions into attached EasyTier peers. Own per-client generations,
status, packet forwarding, address translation, and peer cleanup without
knowing the transport protocol.
Add transactional IPv4 source and destination rewriting with correct
IPv4, TCP, UDP, ICMP, and quoted-packet checksum updates. Keep the old
production portal path temporarily active until the WireGuard adapter is
migrated in the next change.
* feat(wireguard): attach named clients through peer portal
Replace the monolithic WireGuard portal with a native adapter that owns
key derivation, UDP demultiplexing, reauthentication, roaming, and
bounded per-client packet queues. Hand authenticated sessions to the
generic portal runtime for peer lifecycle and IPv4 translation.
Move portal configuration into the core instance model, require a
dedicated server key, and preserve existing listener, CLI, and runtime
configuration behavior. Reject runtime address conflicts before
publishing shared configuration.
* feat(vpn): expose per-client portal status
Project configured clients and their runtime state through the portal
RPC, including generated client configuration, listener, peer identity,
endpoint, tunnel address, ACL groups, and errors. Keep private client
configuration out of the broad instance-info response and expose the
explicit RPC through the CLI and Tauri bridge.
* feat(vpn): add portal configuration to web clients
Expose WireGuard portal listener, key, client, ACL group, and runtime
status fields in the shared frontend library, Web dashboard, and Tauri
client. Preserve UUID and uint64 values across protobuf JSON
boundaries, keep dynamic client editor rows stable, and document the
portal workflow.
* test(vpn): cover multi-client and roaming WireGuard portals
Add two three-node integration tests for the WireGuard VPN portal.
The multi-client test connects two kernel WireGuard clients from
separate network namespaces, verifies per-client connectivity to mesh
nodes, and exercises cross-client traffic that runs the IPv4 source
and destination translation in both directions. A TCP echo exchange
through the portal additionally covers the TCP pseudo-header checksum
rewrite path that ICMP-only ping tests miss, and portal status
snapshots must report both clients online with distinct peer ids and
correctly learned tunnel addresses.
The roaming test swaps the client namespace address (delete the old
address, then add the new one) so the kernel WireGuard source cache is
invalidated and the client keeps sending under the same session from
the new source, exactly like a real network change. The portal must
update the client endpoint on the same peer id via the data path
(same generation, no re-handshake, no detach/reconnect) while
connectivity to mesh nodes is preserved.
Supporting changes: run_wireguard_client now takes an interface name,
and the shared namespace topology gains net_f (10.1.2.5) on the portal
bridge for the second client.
* refactor(gui): refactor gui to use RemoteClient trait and RemoteManagement component
* feat(gui): Add network config saving and refactor RemoteManagement
* add method to create NetworkConfig from TomlConfigLoader
* allow web export/import toml config file and gui edit toml config
* Extract the configuration file dialog into a separate component and allow direct editing of the configuration file on the web
