 # Changelog

+## 2026-03-30 - 11.15.0 - feat(vpn)
+add tag-based VPN route access control and support configured initial VPN clients
+
+- allow VPN-protected routes to restrict access to clients with matching server-defined tags instead of always permitting the full VPN subnet
+- create configured VPN clients automatically on startup and re-apply routes when VPN clients change
+- rename VPN client tag fields to serverDefinedClientTags across APIs, interfaces, handlers, and UI with legacy tag migration on load
+- upgrade @push.rocks/smartvpn from 1.12.0 to 1.13.0
+
+## 2026-03-30 - 11.14.0 - feat(docs)
+document VPN access control and add OpsServer VPN navigation
+
+- Adds comprehensive README documentation for VPN access control, configuration, operating modes, and client management
+- Updates TypeScript interface documentation with VPN-related route, client, status, telemetry, and API request types
+- Extends web dashboard documentation and router view list to include VPN management
+
+## 2026-03-30 - 11.13.0 - feat(vpn)
+add VPN server management and route-based VPN access control
+
+- introduces a VPN manager backed by @push.rocks/smartvpn with persisted server keys and client registrations
+- adds ops API handlers and typed request interfaces for VPN client lifecycle, status, config export, and telemetry
+- adds ops dashboard VPN view and application state for managing VPN clients from the web UI

+
+## 2026-03-27 - 11.12.4 - fix(acme)
+use X509 certificate expiry when reporting ACME certificate validity
+
+- Parse the actual X509 validTo value from the PEM public certificate and fall back to SmartAcme's stored expiry if parsing fails
+- Update reported certificate expiry data and event communication timestamps to use the verified validity date
+- Bump @push.rocks/smartacme to ^9.3.1 and @push.rocks/smartproxy to ^27.1.0
+
+## 2026-03-27 - 11.12.3 - fix(dcrouter)
+re-trigger auto certificate provisioning after SmartAcme becomes ready
+
+- clear certificate provisioning scheduler state before retrying startup-affected routes
+- use route updates to re-run certificate provisioning for all current auto-cert routes
+- remove the unused single-route domain lookup helper
+
+## 2026-03-27 - 11.12.2 - fix(dcrouter)
+guard auto certificate reprovisioning against unnamed routes
+
+- Only re-triggers certificate provisioning for auto-cert routes when a route name is present.
+- Prevents reprovision attempts from running with an undefined route name and reduces warning noise.
+
+## 2026-03-27 - 11.12.1 - fix(dcrouter)
+retry auto certificate provisioning after SmartAcme becomes ready

+pause dashboard polling, sockets, and chart updates when the tab is hidden
+
+- replace interval-based auto-refresh with scheduled actions using visibility-aware auto-pause
+- disconnect and reconnect the TypedSocket on tab visibility changes to avoid background log buildup
+- batch pushed log entries per animation frame and add an in-flight refresh guard to reduce unnecessary re-renders and overlapping requests
+- update state subscriptions to use select() and document the new tab visibility optimization behavior
+- bump smartdb, smartproxy, smartstate, remoteingress, dees-element, and tstest dependencies
+
+## 2026-03-26 - 11.11.0 - feat(docker,cache,proxy)
+improve container runtime defaults and add configurable connection limits
+
+- replace the embedded cache backend integration from smartmongo LocalTsmDb to smartdb LocalSmartDb

+## VPN Access Control
+
+DcRouter integrates [`@push.rocks/smartvpn`](https://code.foss.global/push.rocks/smartvpn) to provide VPN-based route access control. VPN clients connect via standard WireGuard or native WebSocket/QUIC transports, receive an IP from a configurable subnet, and can then access routes that are restricted to VPN-only traffic.
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. **SmartVPN daemon** runs inside dcrouter with a Rust data plane (WireGuard via `boringtun`, custom protocol via Noise IK)
+2. Clients connect and get assigned an IP from the VPN subnet (e.g. `10.8.0.0/24`)
+3. Routes with `vpn: { required: true }` get `security.ipAllowList` automatically injected with the VPN subnet
+4. SmartProxy enforces the allowlist — only VPN-sourced traffic is accepted on those routes
+
+### Two Operating Modes
+
+| Mode | Root Required? | How It Works |
+|------|---------------|-------------|
+| **TUN** (`forwardingMode: 'tun'`) | Yes | Kernel TUN device — VPN traffic enters the network stack with real VPN IPs |
+| **Socket** (`forwardingMode: 'socket'`) | No | Userspace NAT via smoltcp — outbound connections send PROXY protocol v2 to preserve VPN client IPs |
+
+DcRouter auto-detects: if running as root, it uses TUN mode; otherwise, it falls back to socket mode. You can override this with the `forwardingMode` option.
+
+### Configuration
+
+```typescript
+const router = new DcRouter({
+  vpnConfig: {
+    enabled: true,
+    subnet: '10.8.0.0/24',          // VPN client IP pool (default)
+    wgListenPort: 51820,             // WireGuard UDP port (default)
+    serverEndpoint: 'vpn.example.com', // Hostname in generated client configs
+    dns: ['1.1.1.1', '8.8.8.8'],    // DNS servers pushed to clients
+    // forwardingMode: 'socket',     // Override auto-detection
+  },
+  smartProxyConfig: {
+    routes: [
+      // This route is VPN-only — non-VPN clients are blocked
+      {
+        name: 'admin-panel',
+        match: { domains: ['admin.example.com'], ports: [443] },
+        action: {
+          type: 'forward',
+          targets: [{ host: '192.168.1.50', port: 8080 }],
+          tls: { mode: 'terminate', certificate: 'auto' },
+        },
+        vpn: { required: true },  // 🔐 Only VPN clients can access this
+      },
+      // This route is public — anyone can access it
+      {
+        name: 'public-site',
+        match: { domains: ['example.com'], ports: [443] },
+        action: {
+          type: 'forward',
+          targets: [{ host: '192.168.1.10', port: 80 }],
+          tls: { mode: 'terminate', certificate: 'auto' },
+        },
+      },
+    ],
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### Client Management via OpsServer API
+
+Once the VPN server is running, you can manage clients through the OpsServer dashboard or API:
+
+- **Create client** — generates WireGuard keypairs, assigns IP, returns a ready-to-use `.conf` file
+- **Enable / Disable** — toggle client access without deleting
+- **Rotate keys** — generate fresh keypairs (invalidates old ones)
+- **Export config** — re-export in WireGuard or SmartVPN format
+- **Telemetry** — per-client bytes sent/received, keepalives, rate limiting
+
+Standard WireGuard clients on any platform (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux) can connect using the generated `.conf` file or QR code — no custom VPN software needed.
+

+The dashboard automatically pauses all background activity when the browser tab is hidden and resumes when visible:

+- **Auto-refresh polling** uses `createScheduledAction` with `autoPause: 'visibility'` — stops HTTP requests while the tab is sleeping
+- **In-flight guard** prevents concurrent refresh requests from piling up
+- **WebSocket connection** disconnects when hidden and reconnects when visible, preventing log entry accumulation
+- **Network traffic timer** pauses chart updates when the tab is backgrounded
