Hi,This feels like a bad idea to me - switching to a dedicated protocol would remove a small amount of overhead, but comes with a lot of downsides, which in my opinion outweighs the minor benefit of removing some of the overhead.I have a strong preference for the continued use of UDP, because a large amount of consumer networking gear can't handle destination NAT for anything that isn't UDP or TCP. And even wth gear that can, using a separate IP protocol would limit clients relying on destination NAT to one client machine per public IP.Cheers,Steve--On Tue, 20 Feb 2018, 09:20 Eric Dillmann, <lists@jave.fr> wrote:Hi,
Today i discovered that OVH is limiting UDP rate to 6Mbit/s, i did a test by encapsulating wireguard in an ip/ip tunnel
and got 90Mbit/S.
Is there a way to make wireguard evolve to use it's own protocol number.
That would prevent the overhead of wireguard over ipip/gre/vxlan ...
Thanks,
Regards,
Eric
