Example using edgevpn with self owned peers only

Open cur1ousdude opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I have only a very limited understanding of edgevpn/libp2p itself; I'm trying to setup a edgevpn network using only self owned peers.

The idea is that I have a few servers with static IP's and a few machines behind NAT, I want to be able to fully avoid mDNS and DHT, by hard-coding discovery addresses for my public IP servers and using them as relays.

So disabling --mdns false --dht false I've tried using --discovery-bootstrap-peers or --autorelay-static-peer and entering addresses from my static IP nodes.

Sofar without any success. I always only see the own node in /nodes none of the other nodes.

So Firstly; Is this possible? If yes how can this be configured with edgevpn? Example what command to run on the Public IP nodes and on the behind NAT nodes.

Any help/comments/thoughts appreciated & Thanks for this awesome project.

I am also interested in this and regret the lack of documentation explaining in details the bootstrapping. Especially as the README says edgevpn is "fully decentralized".
