About mesh networks
Almost all popular VPN platforms utilize the “client – server” paradigm for rerouting the traffic. However, it is possible to create a mesh network where all connected computers are communicating with each other directly. This method is more secure and can be used by large organizations to transfer highly confidential information.
Configuration
After registering on the official website and installing the program on all required machines you can connect the devices together by logging into the account on every computer. There are flexible access control preferences.
Users are able to view the list of devices on the mesh network. There are instruments for renaming machines, editing route settings and adding ACL tags. Additionally, an option to disable private key expiration is included.
