Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

OpenZiti - *everything* you need to implement your own secure, zero trust overlay network
OpenZiti vs BoringProxy has some similarities for sure. The simplest OpenZiti deployment is similar to a boring proxy deployment. The main differences will be that the listening ports "on the network" are going to be from the OpenZiti edge-router which will authenticate before allowing any connection using a strong x509 identity (not a token) and then after that the same identity can be authorized to access one or more services. That's one killer difference to me. There are lots of other things OpenZiti is doing that boringproxy isn't trying to as well. I filed an issue to do a comparison to that some day https://github.com/openziti/ziti-doc/issues/176 thanks for the idea! :)

Site-to-Site IPsec VPN with dynamic public address at remote site
Use our open source solution, OpenZiti, and host/manage it all yourself - https://openziti.github.io/

Extrovert Wednesday - Telling the World about OpenZiti
You can definitely read more about what OpenZiti is over on the docs page if you're looking for more info about the project https://openziti.github.io/

How bad it is ? Security of self-hosted server
If you're interested in it, you can find it over at github - https://openziti.github.io. It's one more thing to setup and maintain so maybe that's a dealbreaker but since this is selfhosted - maybe not ;)

How to setup OpenZiti on an OpenWRT device as an alternative to VPNs / private APNs
If you want to go fully open source and self-hosted, use an OpenZiti quickstart - https://openziti.github.io/ - while ignoring steps 1, 2, 3, and 5 ... i.e., step 4 is where you deploy an OpenZiti tunneler on an OpenWRT box.

Alternative to manual IP exposing
I not long ago discovered OpenZiti, and to be honest I fell in love with it. I also have a dinamic IP, and I have even some other cases wheren from my place some IoT devices need to find my laptop wherever I may go (I travel a lot).

How we use and Secure SaltStack
https://openziti.github.io/ - gives a good intro

Help making an Ansible collections
More details: What I'm trying to do is setup a Zero Trust Host Access on my Kubernetes cluster using OpenZiti. Ziti has 4 binaries (controller, router, tunneler and admin console), configuring all these to work together is kinda complex, that's why I thought about making custom modules.

Recommended solution secure that will allow my assistant to access a vm in my Azure environment
Probably overkill for your need, but you can give access to your VM without requiring a bastion or VPN, only outbound ports on a NAT gateway using opensource OpenZiti - https://openziti.github.io/. The user would load a client on their device and get access only the the specific resources you define (IP, DNS, port etc). This also means you don't need to assign the IP of the users home (added benefit they can access when not at home).

Gaming on the go: How I game remotely and keep my firewall “Perfect Dark”
Create the identity for the Hosting workstation. You can assign as many attributes as you want. Openziti works with an "attribute-enabled role-based access control (ARBAC) model. So, if you have used hashtags, you’re probably familiarized with it.

Nebula - Peer-to-peer overlay network. Developed and used internally by Slack. Similar to Tailscale but completely open source. Doesn't use WireGuard. Written in Go.

JIT WireGuard
(I am a Nebula maintainer.) We recently merged support for gVisor-based services, although it's very new, and I don't know of much experimentation that's been done with it yet: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/pull/965

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
Nebula, originally from Slack[0].
Wireguard rightly gets a lot of attention, but Nebula is a really simple and easy to deploy mesh network that is often overlooked.
It does lack a management GUI and that stuff is very much DIY.

Nebula is Not the Fastest Mesh VPN (But neither are any of the others)
Fair enough about the android mobile client... My use case only involves meshing linux appliances across various networks so we only need the nebula core binaries which are under MIT license

Nebula is an open-source and free-to-use modern C++ game engine

A word of caution about Tailscale
Sounds like a bunch of your pain points are just related to needing an online CA or ICA. But, looking through the Nebula docs I don't know that it supports things like CRL addresses where you could host the CRL, or OCSP responders. Someone got support for an OCSP responder but never submitted a PR with completed code: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/issues/72

Free Tech Tools and Resources - Multi-clock Display, Networking Tools, Digital Forensics & More
Nebula is a scalable, cross-platform overlay networking tool focused on performance, simplicity, and security. This portable tool is equally adapted for linking a small number of computers or scaling to connect tens of thousands. It integrates encryption, security groups, certificates, and tunneling into a powerful, cohesive connectivity solution. Thanks for the recommendation go to jmeador42.

Would we still create Nebula today?
Replying to my own comment as I can no longer edit it:
The folks over at Slack had an interesting discussion regarding the the "battle of the VPNs" article published by Netmaker I sourced in my parent comment:
https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/discussions/911
-
Tailscale vs. Narrowlink
Interesting. I thought recognized the logo, apparently seems to be a commercial support offering of https://github.com/slackhq/nebula and they support the "nebula" iOS app. I had been using for nebula/defined in the past.
-
Which overlay network?
Nebula: Is super easy to get running. It uses an interesting angle, working on the service and not just the device level. Unfortunately their NAT support seems to be still quite problematic and I am not going to maintain all those forwarded ports manually. There is a PR to support PCP but even if that ever gets applied I am not sure how well that will play with older routers. While it should be battle proven at slack, the community seems to be not that active. It still has the in-house tool that just got released.
