Zerotier & Mikrotik design concept
I’ve been happily using Zerotier for some of my own internal SD_WAN/VPN style connectivity for a while now and have found it to be a really effective solution that obviates many of the pain points of traditional VPN solutions. And I’m been a happy Mikrotik owner, specifically on the switching side of the house. But when I discovered that there is a Zerotier package for the Mikrotik routers, that made me decide to do some more research about leveraging the fact that Zerotier isn’t just point-to-point connections between the participants, but that Zerotier clients can also be routers for complete IP subnets.
