tinc - Dec 2015 - Is there any some cases we can see ?

Hi,

We just found the tinc, looks like it is really a better VPN solution than
traditional VPN, I am wondering, is there some cases we can refer, like is
there some big cluster running in the production environment ?

Thank you.

I know of some large deployments of tinc, but usually people want their
Virtual Private Network kept private, so I won't talk about them. But a
more public one is ChaosVPN, which connects many hackerspaces in the
world together. It currently has 246 nodes, with mixed IPv4 and IPv6
subnets.

The Freifunk Intercity-VPN has about 103 nodes as of today in
Switch-Mode (L2), connecting most of the german Freifunk communities
with each other, via both IPv4 and IPv6.

We use it to peer via BGP and route not only Freifunk, but also DN42 and
ChaosVPN traffic.

While we need L2 for BGP Peerings I'd recommend, for scalability
reasons, to use tincs router mode, if you don't need such a
decentralized network. In Freifunk many poeple maintain their own network.
