Landscape is a Linux router application built in Rust with eBPF that routes traffic by domain rather than just IP. It uses a userspace DNS plane with per-flow isolated DNS servers whose answers populate kernel eBPF maps, while XDP/TC hooks steer packets in-kernel without iptables or a userspace datapath.
Use cases
- turn a Linux machine into a home router
- route traffic by domain instead of IP lists
- give each device or flow its own DNS server and upstream
- send selected traffic through a Docker container proxy
- configure full-cone NAT for BT/PT while keeping strict NAT elsewhere
- avoid iptables and userspace packet forwarding overhead
- manage router settings through a web UI and REST API
When to choose
- you want a software router on a standard Linux distro like Debian, Arch, or openSUSE
- you need domain-based traffic steering with per-flow DNS isolation
- you want kernel-speed packet handling via eBPF XDP/TC
- you need fine-grained NAT control per domain or IP
- you want everything scriptable through a REST API
When to avoid
- you run FreeBSD, macOS, or Alpine Linux
- your kernel is older than 6.9 or lacks BTF/BPF support
- you need an OpenWrt-style turnkey router image
- you are memory-constrained below ~1.5 GiB
- you prefer traditional iptables/nftables-based routing
