 # Changelog
 
+## Pending
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+## 2026-05-31 - 13.41.1
+
+### Fixes
+
+- prevent SmartAcme startup from blocking router startup (smartacme)
+  - Start SmartAcme in the background with bounded exponential retry handling
+  - Re-trigger certificate provisioning after SmartAcme becomes ready
+  - Cancel stale retry timers and clean up SmartAcme instances during shutdown or config updates
+
+## 2026-05-31 - 13.41.0
+
+### Features
+
+- add RemoteIngress hub settings management (remoteingress)
+  - Persist hub-level RemoteIngress performance settings with validation and seed defaults from config
+  - Add typed read/update handlers and web UI controls for hub performance settings
+  - Restart the tunnel hub after hub setting updates so new performance defaults take effect
+  - Serialize RemoteIngress lifecycle tasks, edge mutations, route syncs, and stop/start operations to avoid hub race conditions
+
+## 2026-05-31 - 13.40.3
+
+### Fixes
+
+- bump smartproxy and remoteingress dependencies (deps)
+  - Bumped @push.rocks/smartproxy from ^27.12.1 to ^27.12.2
+  - Bumped @serve.zone/remoteingress from ^4.22.2 to ^4.22.3
+  - Updated dependency versions in both package.json and deno.json
+
+## 2026-05-31 - 13.40.2
+
+### Fixes
+
+- ensure source profiles fully own route security (routes)
+  - Resolve profile-backed routes by cloning source profile security instead of merging inline route overrides
+  - Clear stale route security when a source profile reference is removed without explicit replacement security
+  - Add a migration to rematerialize persisted profile-backed route security
+
+## 2026-05-31 - 13.40.1
+
+### Fixes
+
+- update smartproxy, remoteingress, and tsdeno dependencies (deps)
+  - Bump @push.rocks/smartproxy to ^27.12.1 in Deno imports
+  - Bump @serve.zone/remoteingress to ^4.22.2 in package and Deno configuration
+  - Bump @git.zone/tsdeno to ^1.5.0
+
+## 2026-05-30 - 13.40.0
+
+### Features
+
+- use active connection snapshots for proxy metrics and RADIUS network secrets (monitoring-opsserver-radius)
+  - Add cached SmartProxy active connection snapshots for connection info and network statistics.
+  - Report ops security active connections from per-connection snapshots with protocol, state, and byte counters.
+  - Configure RADIUS clients through smartradius network secrets, including CIDR ranges, and forward additional RADIUS attributes.
+  - Bump smartproxy to ^27.12.1 and smartradius to ^1.3.0.
+
+## 2026-05-30 - 13.39.0
+
+### Features
+
+- add remote ingress performance overrides and update RADIUS integration (remoteingress,radius)
+  - Persist and propagate optional remote ingress performance overrides through remote ingress create/update APIs, database documents, and hub allowed-edge sync.
+  - Add web UI controls and status display for per-edge maximum connection overrides.
+  - Extend remote ingress performance interfaces with stream payload, timeout, and server-first port settings.
+  - Update RADIUS server integration for smartradius 1.2 request/response handling and client secret resolution, including CIDR matching.
+
+## 2026-05-30 - 13.38.4

 # @serve.zone/dcrouter
 
-![dcrouter banner](https://code.foss.global/serve.zone/docs/raw/branch/main/dcrouter.png)
-
-`dcrouter` is a TypeScript control plane for running a serious multi-protocol edge or datacenter gateway from one process. It wires together SmartProxy for HTTP/HTTPS/TCP routing, smartmta for email, smartdns for authoritative DNS and DNS-over-HTTPS, smartradius, smartvpn, remote ingress tunnels, a TypedRequest API, and the Ops dashboard.
-
-Use it when you want one place to define routes, manage domains and certificates, protect internal services, automate changes over an API, and operate the whole stack from a browser.
+`dcrouter` is the serve.zone datacenter gateway runtime: a TypeScript control plane that brings HTTP/HTTPS/TCP routing, email ingress, authoritative DNS, RADIUS, VPN access control, remote ingress tunnels, certificate operations, metrics, and an Ops dashboard into one process.
 
 ## Issue Reporting and Security
 
 For reporting bugs, issues, or security vulnerabilities, please visit [community.foss.global/](https://community.foss.global/). This is the central community hub for all issue reporting. Developers who sign and comply with our contribution agreement and go through identification can also get a [code.foss.global/](https://code.foss.global/) account to submit Pull Requests directly.
 
-## Why It Works
+## Why It Exists
 
-- 🌐 One runtime for HTTP/HTTPS/TCP, SMTP, authoritative DNS + DoH, RADIUS, VPN, and remote ingress.
-- 🧠 Constructor config becomes system-managed routes, while API-created routes stay editable and clearly separated.
-- 🔐 Certificates, DNS providers, domains, records, API tokens, access profiles, and protected routes live in one management plane.
-- 🖥️ The OpsServer UI and TypedRequest API are first-class parts of the package, not an afterthought.
-- ⚡ Qualifying HTTPS forward routes on port `443` get HTTP/3 augmentation by default unless you opt out.
+Modern infrastructure often has too many tiny edge tools: a proxy here, a DNS daemon there, a separate cert worker, another dashboard, and a tunnel process bolted on later. `dcrouter` is designed as a cohesive gateway layer for operators who want one audited place to define public routes, domains, edge tunnels, access policy, and operational state.
 
-## What You Get

+| Operations | Dashboard views, TypedRequest handlers, metrics, logs, health, API tokens, users, and configuration views |
 
-## Installation
+## Install
+
+Install the CLI/runtime on a Linux gateway host with the released self-extracting binary:
+
+```bash
+curl -sSL https://code.foss.global/serve.zone/dcrouter/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sudo bash
+```
+
+The installer downloads `dcrouter-linux-x64` or `dcrouter-linux-arm64` from the latest Gitea release, installs it under `/opt/dcrouter`, and links `/usr/local/bin/dcrouter`. Use `--version vX.Y.Z` to pin a release, `--install-dir /path` to change the target directory, or `--source` to clone the tag and build the NodeNext package locally.
+
+```bash
+curl -sSL https://code.foss.global/serve.zone/dcrouter/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --source
+```
+
+Use the package as a TypeScript library:
 
 ```bash

 - send proxied traffic to `http://localhost:18080`
 - stop gracefully with `await router.stop()`
 
-## Route Ownership Model
+## Initial Admin Bootstrap
 
-dcrouter keeps route ownership explicit so automation does not accidentally stomp on system-generated traffic.
+When DB-backed persistence is enabled and no persisted admin exists, dcrouter does not auto-create an admin account. The Ops dashboard exposes a non-cancelable first-admin bootstrap flow that must be completed explicitly.
 
-| Route origin | Where it comes from | What you can do |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `config` | Constructor `smartProxyConfig.routes` and related seed config | View and toggle |
-| `email` | Email listener and mail-routing derived routes | View and toggle |
-| `dns` | Generated DoH and DNS-related routes | View and toggle |
-| `api` | Created through the Ops UI or API client | Full CRUD |
+Bootstrap behavior:
 
-Important details:
+- `getAdminBootstrapStatus` reports whether persistence is ready and whether a first admin is required.
+- The temporary env/config admin identity is only used to authorize bootstrap access while no persisted admin exists.
+- `createInitialAdminUser` creates the first persisted admin with normalized email and local password authentication.
+- Optional `idp.global` authentication can be enabled for that local account. The hosted `https://idp.global` endpoint is used by default, `adminAuth.idpGlobalUrl` or `DCROUTER_IDP_GLOBAL_URL` only override it, and the local dcrouter role remains authoritative.
+- After a persisted admin exists, temporary bootstrap admin login is rejected and normal persisted-account authentication is used.
 
-- system routes are persisted with stable `systemKey` values
-- DNS-over-HTTPS routes are persisted and then hydrated with live socket handlers at runtime
-- editing and deletion are reserved for `api` routes; system routes are toggle-only by design
+## Configuration Model
 
-## Configuration Cheat Sheet
-
-The main entrypoint is `IDcRouterOptions`.
+`DcRouter` is configured with `IDcRouterOptions` from `@serve.zone/dcrouter`.
 
 | Option | Purpose |
 | --- | --- |
-| `smartProxyConfig` | Main HTTP/HTTPS and TCP/SNI routing config |
-| `emailConfig` | Email hostname, ports, domains, and mail routing rules |
-| `emailPortConfig` | External-to-internal email port remapping and received-email storage path |
-| `tls` | ACME contact and static certificate paths |
-| `dnsNsDomains` | Nameserver hostnames used for NS bootstrap and DoH route generation |
-| `dnsScopes` | Domains served authoritatively by the embedded DNS server |
-| `dnsRecords` | Static constructor-defined DNS records |
-| `publicIp` / `proxyIps` | How A records are exposed for nameserver and service records |
-| `dbConfig` | Embedded LocalSmartDb or external MongoDB-backed persistence |

-| `remoteIngressConfig` | Remote ingress hub and edge tunnel setup |
-| `vpnConfig` | VPN server and client definitions for protected route access |
-| `http3` | Global HTTP/3 behavior for qualifying HTTPS routes |
-| `opsServerPort` | Ops dashboard and TypedRequest API port |
+| `baseDir` | Root directory for dcrouter runtime data. Defaults to `~/.serve.zone/dcrouter`. |
+| `smartProxyConfig` | Main SmartProxy route configuration for HTTP/HTTPS/TCP/SNI traffic. |
+| `emailConfig` | UnifiedEmailServer configuration: hostname, ports, domains, and mail routes. |
+| `emailPortConfig` | External-to-internal email port mapping and received-email storage path. |
+| `tls` | Legacy/static TLS and ACME contact settings used to seed certificate config. |
+| `dnsNsDomains` | Nameserver hostnames used for generated NS records and DoH routes. |
+| `dnsScopes` | Authoritative domains served by the embedded DNS server. |
+| `dnsRecords` | Constructor-defined DNS records. |
+| `publicIp` / `proxyIps` | IPs used for generated A records and proxy-aware DNS exposure. |
+| `dbConfig` | Smartdata persistence via embedded LocalSmartDb or external MongoDB. |
+| `radiusConfig` | RADIUS authentication, accounting, and VLAN assignment. |
+| `remoteIngressConfig` | Remote ingress hub configuration for edge tunnel nodes. |
+| `vpnConfig` | VPN server/client definitions and VPN-only routing behavior. |
+| `http3` | HTTP/3 augmentation settings for qualifying HTTPS routes. |
+| `opsServerPort` | Port for the Ops dashboard and `/typedrequest` API. Defaults to `3000`. |
 
-## Important Behavior
+Important runtime behavior:
 
-- `dbConfig.enabled` defaults to `true`. If you do not provide `mongoDbUrl`, dcrouter starts an embedded local database automatically.
-- If you disable the DB, constructor-driven traffic can still run, but DB-backed features such as persistent routes, tokens, ACME config, and managed domains do not start.
-- Qualifying HTTPS forward routes on port `443` get HTTP/3 by default unless `http3.enabled === false` or the route opts out.
-- DNS-over-HTTPS endpoints are generated on the first entry of `dnsNsDomains` at `/dns-query` and `/resolve`.
-- Email listener ports are internally remapped by default, so common external ports such as `25`, `587`, and `465` end up on internal ports like `10025`, `10587`, and `10465`.
-- Provider-backed domains can be managed in the Ops plane without being served by the embedded authoritative DNS server.
+- `dbConfig.enabled` defaults to enabled. Without `mongoDbUrl`, dcrouter uses embedded LocalSmartDb.
+- If the DB is disabled, constructor-defined proxy traffic can still run, but persistent API routes, tokens, managed domains, and stored certificate state are unavailable.
+- Qualifying HTTPS forward routes on port `443` are HTTP/3-augmented unless `http3.enabled === false` or the route opts out.
+- DNS-over-HTTPS routes are generated on the first `dnsNsDomains` entry at `/dns-query` and `/resolve`.
+- Email listener ports can be remapped internally, for example public `25`, `587`, and `465` to unprivileged internal ports.
 
-## Bigger Example
+## Route Ownership
+
+dcrouter keeps generated and operator-created routes separate so automation can reconcile safely.
+
+| Origin | Source | Mutability |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `config` | Constructor `smartProxyConfig.routes` and seed data | Toggle only |
+| `email` | Email listener and email-domain generated routes | Toggle only |
+| `dns` | Generated DNS-over-HTTPS and DNS-related routes | Toggle only |
+| `api` | Ops UI or API client | Full CRUD |
+
+System routes are persisted with stable `systemKey` values. API-created routes are the editable route layer intended for operators and automation.

-## Automation
+## VPN Target Profiles
 
-dcrouter gives you three good integration layers:
+Target profiles define what a VPN client can reach through `domains`, direct `targets`, and `routeRefs`. Set `allowRoutesByClientSourceIp: true` on a target profile when a VPN client should also be granted to routes whose source policy is meant to evaluate the client's real connecting IP.
 
-- the browser dashboard served by `OpsServer`
-- raw TypedRequest contracts via `@serve.zone/dcrouter/interfaces`
-- a higher-level OO API client via `@serve.zone/dcrouter/apiclient` or `@serve.zone/dcrouter-apiclient`
+dcrouter maps target profiles to SmartProxy VPN client grants. SmartVPN forwards both the real client source IP and authenticated VPN metadata through trusted PROXY v2 headers, so SmartProxy checks source policy and VPN client authorization separately for each connection. Route `security.ipAllowList` and `security.ipBlockList` stay the source of truth for real source-IP policy; `vpnOnly` adds the requirement for authenticated VPN metadata and a matching VPN client grant.
 
-### OO API Client Example
+```typescript
+const targetProfile = {
+  name: 'ops laptop source access',
+  allowRoutesByClientSourceIp: true,
+};
+```
+
+## Automation API

+The OpsServer exposes TypedRequest handlers at `/typedrequest`. You can use raw contracts or the object-oriented API client.

+## Docker Image
+
+Release builds publish a multi-arch OCI image at `code.foss.global/serve.zone/dcrouter:latest` for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64`. The image sets `DCROUTER_MODE=OCI_CONTAINER` and starts `node ./cli.js`.
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm --name dcrouter \
+  --network host \
+  -v dcrouter-data:/data \
+  -e DCROUTER_BASE_DIR=/data \
+  -e DCROUTER_TLS_EMAIL=ops@example.com \
+  code.foss.global/serve.zone/dcrouter:latest
+```
+
+Host networking is the simplest container mode for a gateway that owns HTTP/S, SMTP, DNS, RADIUS, remote ingress, and dynamic proxy ports. For narrower deployments, publish only the ports you enable in `IDcRouterOptions` or via the `DCROUTER_*` environment overrides.

 # @serve.zone/dcrouter-apiclient
 
-Typed, object-oriented client for operating a running dcrouter instance. It wraps the OpsServer `/typedrequest` API in managers and resource classes so your scripts can work with routes, certificates, tokens, remote ingress edges, emails, stats, config, logs, and RADIUS without hand-rolling requests.
+`@serve.zone/dcrouter-apiclient` is the object-oriented TypeScript client for the dcrouter OpsServer API. It wraps `/typedrequest` calls in managers, builders, and resource classes for routes, certificates, API tokens, remote ingress, email, stats, config, logs, RADIUS, and WorkHoster integrations.

-## What the Client Gives You
+## Authentication
 
-| Manager | Purpose |
-| --- | --- |
-| `client.routes` | List merged routes, create API routes, toggle routes |
-| `client.certificates` | Inspect certificates and run certificate operations |
-| `client.apiTokens` | Create, list, toggle, roll, and revoke API tokens |
-| `client.remoteIngress` | Manage edge registrations, statuses, and connection tokens |
-| `client.emails` | Inspect email items and trigger resend flows |
-| `client.stats` | Health, statistics, and operational summaries |
-| `client.config` | Read the current configuration view |
-| `client.logs` | Read recent logs and log-related data |
-| `client.radius` | Manage RADIUS clients, VLANs, and sessions |
-
-## Authentication Modes
-
-| Mode | How it works |
-| --- | --- |
-| Admin login | Call `login(username, password)` and the returned identity is stored on the client |
-| API token | Pass `apiToken` in the constructor and it is injected into requests automatically |
+The client supports persisted-admin session login and API-token authentication. Initial admin creation is a bootstrap flow exposed by the Ops dashboard and raw TypedRequest contracts; after a persisted admin exists, use that account with `login()`.
 
 ```typescript
-const client = new DcRouterApiClient({
+const sessionClient = new DcRouterApiClient({
   baseUrl: 'https://dcrouter.example.com',
-  apiToken: 'dcr_your_token_here',
+});
+await sessionClient.login('admin@example.com', 'strong-password');
+
+const tokenClient = new DcRouterApiClient({
+  baseUrl: 'https://dcrouter.example.com',
+  apiToken: 'dcr_token_value',
 });
 ```
 
-Important behavior:
+`baseUrl` is normalized by removing trailing slashes. Requests are sent to `${baseUrl}/typedrequest`. `buildRequestPayload()` injects the current identity and optional API token for manager methods.
 
-- `baseUrl` is normalized, and the client automatically calls `${baseUrl}/typedrequest`
-- `buildRequestPayload()` injects the current identity and optional API token for you
-- system routes can be toggled, but only API routes are meant for edit and delete flows
+## Manager Map
 
-## Route Builder Example
+| Manager | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `client.routes` | List merged routes, build API routes, update/delete API routes, and toggle routes. |
+| `client.certificates` | Inspect certificate summaries and trigger certificate operations. |
+| `client.apiTokens` | Create, list, toggle, roll, and revoke API tokens. |
+| `client.remoteIngress` | Manage edge registrations, statuses, ports, tags, and connection tokens. |
+| `client.emails` | Inspect received/cached email items and trigger resend flows. |
+| `client.workHosters` | Manage WorkHoster-facing route/application integration calls. |
+| `client.stats` | Read health, counters, summaries, and runtime status. |
+| `client.config` | Read the current configuration view. |
+| `client.logs` | Read recent log information. |
+| `client.radius` | Manage RADIUS clients, VLAN mappings, and accounting sessions. |
