+## 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.
+
