Ratatoskr

Ratatoskr is (well, eventually will be) a mesh routing protocol with the following features:

  • Transport protected by WireGuard
  • True peer-to-peer with no supervisory nodes (you need to connect to one node to be introduced to the rest of the network plus your ID must be approved by administrator and not blacklisted).
  • Automatic node discovery
  • Nodes addressed in mesh via a private RFC4193 IPv6 network.
  • Route setup via link-state protocol (topology yet to be decided, probobly hierarchical mesh based on seniority/link speed/being behind NAT)
  • Work from behind NAT if at least one node with public IP is available.
  • A simple PKI basing on ED25519 cryptography to grant access to the network
    • Master certificate MaC for a network
    • Net certificate NeC signed by MaC
    • Station certificates StC_xx signed by NeC
    • Configuration certificate CoC signed by MaC
    • Administrator certificates AdC_xx signed by CoC
    • Configuration frames injected into network signed by AdC_xx to be accepted:
      • Station revocation
  • Local management via HTTP protocol
  • Initial scale for ~2000 nodes per mesh.
  • Concept of mesh bridging (node belonging to more than one mesh and passing messages between them).
