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
