Subnet is a simple, auditable VPN server and client written in Go, using TLS mutual authentication and TUN interfaces to route traffic. It supports traditional full-tunnel VPN setups and exposing remote LANs, though the author recommends WireGuard for real deployments.

Use cases

  • set up a simple self-hosted vpn server
  • tunnel all non-lan traffic through another machine
  • route traffic through a remote box with nat
  • make a remote lan accessible from my machine
  • vpn with tls mutual certificate authentication
  • lightweight go vpn client and server

When to choose

  • you want a small, readable, auditable VPN codebase in Go
  • you need certificate-based mutual TLS authentication for VPN clients
  • you want to expose a remote LAN to your machine
  • throughput needs are modest (under ~100Mbps)

When to avoid

  • you need high performance or production-grade security - use WireGuard instead
  • you need Windows client support
  • you want an actively developed project with recent releases
