Hydra VPN SDK demo for OpenWRT
Please pay attention that this limited version does not support dynamic configuration via websockets or any kind of statistics/reporting and can send a lot of debug information to stdout.
Compatibility
OpenWRT v19.07.3 or later
Installation and running
for x86_64 target
opkg install afwrt-ws_0.3_x86_64.ipk
for mvebu/cortexa9 target
opkg install afwrt-ws_0.3_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16.ipk
If package installation was succeeded, the next files should appear on your WRT system:
/usr/lib/libafwrt.so - VPN SDK library
/usr/bin/afwrt-ws - VPN SDK demo client
/etc/afwrt/whoami.in - VPN SDK library configuration template
/etc/afwrt-ws.conf - VPN SDK client configuration
Please take a look at the section below and check /etc/afwrt-ws.conf was configured properly for your setup and execute afwrt-ws binary with root privileges.
You can download pre-compiled library and binary files for x86_64 architecture
Configuration
Most of the options could be left unchanged for this demo. But the next options should be updated properly in afwrt-ws.conf:
"wan_ifname": name of your "Wide Area Network" interface, which your device connected to the internet through
"protected_ip_addrs": array of protected IP addresses on the internal network you want to test, with Country (Virtual Location) code for each
Option "token" is hard coded until the second release. It will be retrieved internally using the “/user/login” method.
The advantage of x86_64 format is that this build can be deployed and tested on any developer machine w/o real hardware. We recommend using VirtualBox.
VBox-based environment could be set up according to the instruction:
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/virtualization/virtualbox-vm
Available country codes
In the current release, a list of available country codes is hardcoded by the following ones:
ar
au
br
ca
ch
cz
de
dk
es
fr
gb
hk
id
ie
in
it
jp
mx
nl
no
ro

From the next release, this list will be retrieved dynamically from the backend server using the “/user/countries” method.
