I'm interested, how do you expose your services (on your PC I assume) to the internet through wireguard? Is it theough some VPN?
Wireguard IS a VPN. He has somehow through his challenges of exposing services to the internet, exposed wireguard from his home to the internet for him to connect to. Then he can connect to his internal services from there.
It's honestly the best option and how I operate as well. I only have a handful of items exposed and even those flow through a DMZ proxy before hitting their destination servers.
Oh, I thought it was a protocol for virtual networks, that merely VPNs used. The more you know!
Edit: spelled out VPN 😅
VPN’s are neat, besides the fact they’re capable of masking your IP & DNS they’re also capable of providing resources to devices outside a network.
A good example is the server at my work is only accessible on my works network, to access the server remotely without exposing it directly to the internet would be to use a VPN tunnel.
