Configuration File

Supports specifying the configuration file path using the -c parameter.

Note: The configuration file has a higher priority. When a configuration file is specified at runtime, all command line parameters except for -c will be ignored and only the configuration file will take effect.

sh
./easytier-core -c ./config.yaml

You can run ./easytier-core directly without using any parameters to obtain the minimal configuration file. By running the command with parameters, you can get a configuration file corresponding to those parameters. The configuration file will be printed on the command line, and you can manually copy the relevant configuration and save it as a TOML file.

Below is an example of a configuration file along with annotations for various configuration options.

yaml
# instance name to identify this vpn node in same machine
instance_name = ""
# Hostname, used to identify the hostname of this device
hostname = ""
# Instance ID, usually a UUID, unique within the same VPN network
instance_id = ""
# The IPv4 address of this VPN node. If left empty, this node will only forward packets and will not create a TUN device
ipv4 = ""
# Automatically determined and assigned IP address by Easytier, starting from 10.0.0.1 by default. Warning: When using DHCP, if an IP conflict occurs within the network, the IP address will be automatically changed.
dhcp = false

# enable smoltcp stack for subnet proxy
use_smoltcp = false
# only forward traffic from the whitelist networks, supporting wildcard strings, multiple network names can be separated by spaces. if this parameter is empty, forwarding is disabled. by default, all networks are allowed. e.g.: '*' (all networks), 'def*' (networks with the prefix 'def'), 'net1 net2' (only allow net1 and net2)
