I was coming here to say that it looks a lot like ZeroTier. The main differentiator as far as I know is the support for SSO and MFA.
With ZeroTier, the client connects to the network using a private shared key and then needs to be approved on the control plane independently.
- api 7y agoZeroTier original (and still main) author here. Objectively speaking another difference is the ACL scheme which seems perhaps less powerful than our own rules engine but easier to use. The ACLs are closer to intents while ZT rules require some TCP/IP knowledge (like raw iptables or pf). We have plans to address this ourselves more with a higher level UI to build rules from intents and common patterns. Also have more auth integration planned, but the list is long.
- DenseComet 7y agoDo you have any news to ZeroTier 2.0? I'm really looking forward to it and being able to deploy my own controllers easily!
- api 7y agoSignificant performance improvements in the core, reworked CLI, crypto improvements, professional security audit of both design and code, easier root server federation, easier DIY controllers, better multicast, and of course bug fixes. The firm doing our security audits is an extremely well known one. Don't want to reveal the name quite yet. It's possible that some of that won't land fully formed right away in 2.0 but will follow shortly thereafter, but the performance, auditing, crypto, and multicast will be there.
- zimbatm 7y agoHi, thanks a lot for ZeroTier! I use it every day and it changed how I interact with my network of personal computers.
