Discard malformed fake TCP frames instead of panicking so OpenWrt
nodes can survive unexpected or truncated packets.
Also emit the correct IPv6 ethertype and cover the parser with
round-trip and truncation regression tests.
Addresses issue #2016 where nodes behind unstable networks
(e.g. campus firewalls) cause excessive traffic that can freeze
the remote node.
Two changes in peer_ospf_route.rs:
- Make do_sync_route_info only trigger reverse sync_now when
incoming data actually changed the route table or foreign
network state. The previous unconditional sync_now created
an A->B->A->B ping-pong cycle on every RPC exchange.
- Add exponential backoff (50ms..5s) to session_task retry loop.
The previous fixed 50ms retry produced ~20 RPCs/s during
sustained network instability.
Normalize composite tunnel display values before rendering peer and
debug output so IPv6 tunnel types no longer append `6` to the port.
- Preserve prefixes like `txt-` while converting tunnel schemes to
their IPv6 form.
- Recover malformed values such as `txt-tcp://...:110106` into
`txt-tcp6://...:11010`.
- Reuse the normalized remote address display in CLI debug output.
Implement the previously stubbed connector add/remove CLI commands
using PatchConfig RPC with InstanceConfigPatch.connectors, and
remove the peer add/remove stubs that had incorrect semantics.
The GUI exposed three networking modes: public server, manual, and standalone. In practice EasyTier does not have a server/client role distinction here. Those options only mapped to different peer bootstrap shapes, which made the product model misleading and pushed users toward a non-existent "public server" concept.
This change rewrites the shared configuration UX around initial nodes. Users now add or remove one or more initial node URLs directly, and the UI explains that EasyTier networking works like plugging in a cable: once a node connects to one or more existing nodes, it can join the mesh. Initial nodes may be self-hosted or shared by others.
To preserve compatibility, the frontend keeps the legacy fields and adds normalization helpers in the shared NetworkConfig layer. Old configs are read as initial_node_urls, while saves, runs, validation, config generation, and persisted GUI config sync still denormalize back into the current backend shape: zero initial nodes -> Standalone, one -> PublicServer, many -> Manual. This avoids any proto or backend API change while making old saved configs and imported TOML files load cleanly in the new UI.
Code changes:
- add initial_node_urls plus normalize/denormalize helpers in the shared frontend NetworkConfig model
- remove the mode switch and public-server/manual specific inputs from the shared Config component and replace them with a single initial-node list plus explanatory copy
- update Chinese and English locale strings for the new terminology
- normalize configs received from GUI/web backends and denormalize them before outbound API calls
- normalize GUI save-config events before storing them in localStorage so legacy payloads remain editable under the new model
- add lazy_p2p so nodes only start background P2P for peers that actually have recent business traffic
- add need_p2p so specific peers can still request eager background P2P even when other nodes enable lazy mode
- cover the new behavior with focused connector/peer-manager tests plus three-node integration tests that verify relay-to-direct route transition
* machine-id should be scoped unbder same user-id
* feat: report device os metadata to console
* fix sync root key cause packet loss
* fix tun packet not invalid
* fix faketcp cause lat jitter
* fix some packet not decrypt
* fix peer info patch, improve performance of update self info
* fix foreign credential identity mismatch handling
introduces support for custom credential ID generation, allowing users to specify their own credential IDs instead of relying solely on auto-generated UUIDs.
- extend web controller bindings to cover full RPC service set
- update rpc_service API wiring and session/controller integration
- generate trait-level json_call_method in rpc codegen
- route restful proxy-rpc requests via scoped typed clients
- add json-call regression tests and required Sync bound fixes~
Implement end-to-end encryption for core-web connections using the
Noise protocol framework with the following changes:
Client-side (easytier/src/web_client/):
- Add security.rs module with Noise handshake implementation
- Add upgrade_client_tunnel() for client-side handshake
- Add Noise frame encryption/decryption via TunnelFilter
- Integrate GetFeature RPC for capability negotiation
- Support secure_mode option to enforce encrypted connections
- Handle graceful fallback for backward compatibility
Server-side (easytier-web/):
- Accept Noise handshake in client_manager
- Expose encryption support via GetFeature RPC
The implementation uses Noise_NN_25519_ChaChaPoly_SHA256 pattern for
encryption without authentication. Provides backward compatibility
with automatic fallback to plaintext connections.
- improve credential peer filtering and related route lookup behavior
- expose credential peer information through CLI and API definitions
- add and refine tests for credential routing and peer interactions
