oh-hey. I'm new to Netmaker. I've got a question, and I wish to confirm if Netmaker has this capability or not. Context here is that I have a couple of servers spread out between different regions. Each server is under a different provider. Each provider have low pings to certain ISPs and horrible ping to others (this varies during the day). I wish to achieve lowest possible latency/delay between server communications. An example scenario is that for example I have 3 nodes, Node A, B, and C. I wish to communicate between A <> C. At morning, A <> C: 10ms, A <> B <> C: 20ms; In this example case, I wish for a direct connection between A <> C. At night, A <> C: 30ms, A <> B <> C: 20ms; In this case, I wish for packets destined to C from A to be routed through B, and from C to A to be routed through B. Is this possible with Netmaker or some form of extra scripting? Thank you.

The enterprise edition would provide you with the info required to determine the fastest route but changing the route would require additional scripting/manual steps
m
Do you have examples of this "scripting" you say?
b
sorry, no

🥲
Alright then, do you have anywhere to start with then?
b
If I understand your scenario correctly, you would want to create a network with three nodes A, B and C. In the morning, you would have them as all normal nodes.
In the evening you would have nodeB become a relay for nodeC
creating the relay is done either through the netmaker UI or with nmctl (netmaker command line interface)
m
The time is not predictable, the scenario presented is just one example.
also this, only for A to C. not all nodes (if more than 3) should try and reach C via B.

Hi people!
new to netmaker. Already have it working. But i wonder if this is possible
i need to pass traffic from netmaker host node2 - 10.254.254.50 to host node1 10.254.254.40 and then NAT traffic to the host remote1 IPSEC - 172.20.0.2
is it possible?
m
I haven't set up that configuration, but it should be possible if I read this right. the IPSec GW would have to have the routing information back to node 1 and Netmaker would need the ip information for the connecting network from node1
e
i asume doing NAT to the netmaker tunnel network on Node1 will masquerade all that traffic using Node1 IPSEC interface IP
so traffic between ipsec tunnels is transparent.
