What is this all about?
+
= Goals =
  
mc.fly will write some stuff about it. In case you have awesome ideas just add them.
+
ChaosVPN is a system to connect Hackers.  
  
 +
Design principals include that it should be without Single Point of Failure, make usage of full encryption, use RFC1918 ip ranges, scales well on >100 connected networks and is being able to run on a embedded hardware you will find in our todays router.
  
 +
It should be designed that noone sees other peoples traffic.
  
 +
It should be mainly autoconfig as in that besides the joining node no administrator of the network should be in the need to acutally do something when a node joins or leaves.

+
If you want to find a solution for a Network without Single Point of failure, has - due to Voice over IP - low latency and that noone will see other peoples traffic you end up pretty quick with a full mesh based network.
  
== TINC SETUP ==
+
Therefore we came up with the tinc solution. tinc does a fully meshed peer to peer network and it defines endpoints and not tunnels.
At the moment the Hamburg ccc Erfa uses [http://www.tinc-vpn.org TINC] together with some dirty perl-scripts, which are used to read the routes and peers.
 
  
For this Setup we have howtos for

[[ChaosVPN::DebianHowto|Debian]] and [[ChaosVPN::GentooHowto|Gentoo]] (in german).
 
  
=== Beginninig in 2003 ===
+
So there we are. ChaosVPN is working and it seems the usage increases, more nodes join in and more sevices pop up.
(haegar:)
 
For me the whole setup with Openvpn was to complicated. It would take some time till its done and the scaling problems were forseable.
 
  
Therefore i took time today to get a working mini-solution with tinc running real quick.

You want to join ChaosVPN and experience the awesomeness of it?
* data traffic between participants must not rely on the ccc infrastructure.
 
* failure of any parts of the infrastructure must not shut down the network completely
 
* no work needed for participants just because a new participant is joining or a old one quitting.

=== Update 2006 ===
+
There is a short HowTo [[ChaosVPN:MeshYourNodes|how to better mesh your own nodes]] using ChaosVPN.
Today (2006) i would implement things different than i did before, but when this happens is completely up in the stars.
 
Until there is a better setup we will use the old setup.

== redesign ==
+
We have a mailinglist, and invite all interested persons to join.
The Rebuild of the ChaosVPN became nessesary at some point, as the vermittlung is blackholed. Furthermore we would like to put live back to the ChaosVPN and use it to interconnect the hackerspaces.
 
  
So we thought its a good time to redesign stuff. We will climb up to tinc 1.0.10.

=== Config builder ===
 
Currently we are porting haegars script from perl to c and strip off curl and openssl, so it fits in a OpenWRT box.
 
 
 
=== OpenWRT Packages ===
 
Blogic will build a special OpenWRT package, which is called chaosvpn at the moment and a recent tinc 1.0.10 for that.
 
 
 
See also http://0x1.net/openwrt
 
Packages may be in flux for awhile, if you have trouble with any of the binaries, email [mailto:cjp@0x1.net cjp].
 
 
 
=== Debian Packages ===
 
Haegar updated (backported) tinc 1.0.11 packages for debian. They are availible at:
 
* Debian Etch: http://debian.sdinet.de/etch/sdinet/tinc/
 
* Debian Lenny: http://debian.sdinet.de/lenny/sdinet/tinc/
 
 
 
I will also create Debian packages of the config builder once it is in a usable state.
 
 
 
=== sources ===
 
The scripts are availible at: http://github.com/ryd/chaosvpn
 
  
 
== IP Ranges and Participants: ==
 
== IP Ranges and Participants: ==
  
We need to have non colliding ip ranges and therefore we need some coordination of the used ip ranges.
+
Please see [[ChaosVPN:IPRanges | IP Range ]] for more Infos.
 
 
First of all we would like to be compilant to the used ip ranges of [http://www.freifunk.net freifunk] and [http://dn42.net dn42].
 
 
 
The IP ranges overall are defined in the [http://wiki.freifunk.net/IP-Netze freifunk wiki ip-net] page as root source.
 
 
 
So we use 172.31.0.0/16 for the europeans and 10.100.0.0/13 for the americans. That should leave enough space for everone untill ipv6 is not the future but the present. (Real IPv6 ranges already in use can also be announced on the VPN, but there are no thoughts about private/internal adressing yet.)
 
  
However we will not support 192.168.0.0/16 ip ranges as they are used for various other reasons. This rfc1918 ip range will stay as private to use for internal use (and in fact its used in the dn42 for routing uses.)

"yes" ;) - but we don't know how to implement them for the VPN yet, delegating it with forward zones in local nameservers does not sound very good to me. --[[User:Haegar|Haegar]] 00:40, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Note:
ChaosVPN is a VPN to connect Hackers and Hackerspaces - it does NOT provide anonymous internet access!
For this look at tor or other similar services.

It will also not help you to reach domains like .rdos, .lll, .clos or any other strange things supposed to be available on the "dark web".

Alternative: If you prefer BGP, you can also connect via https://dn42.net/, we are interconnected.

Goals

ChaosVPN is a system to connect Hackers.

Design principals include that it should be without Single Point of Failure, make usage of full encryption, use RFC1918 ip ranges, scales well on >100 connected networks and is being able to run on a embedded hardware you will find in our todays router.

It should be designed that noone sees other peoples traffic.

It should be mainly autoconfig as in that besides the joining node no administrator of the network should be in the need to acutally do something when a node joins or leaves.

If you want to find a solution for a Network without Single Point of failure, has - due to Voice over IP - low latency and that noone will see other peoples traffic you end up pretty quick with a full mesh based network.

Therefore we came up with the tinc solution. tinc does a fully meshed peer to peer network and it defines endpoints and not tunnels.

ChaosVPN connects hacker wherever they are. We connect roadwarriors with their notebook. Servers, even virtual ones in Datacenters, Hackerhouses and hackerspaces. To sum it up we connect networks - maybe down to a small /32.

So there we are. ChaosVPN is working and it seems the usage increases, more nodes join in and more sevices pop up.

For now, an overview picture of the currently connected nodes:

and a simple display of node-uptimes:

Howto join ChaosVPN?

You want to join ChaosVPN and experience the awesomeness of it?

There is a short HowTo how to better mesh your own nodes using ChaosVPN.
