So, here’s what I set up:
Docker with some containers behind Gluetun
Gluetun gives access to the local network so I can access the containers on my home network through http.
The only port I exposed to the internet is the 32400 for Plex.
I reach my home network remotely only through Wireguard, my fritzbox router has a guided setupt that gives me a wg configuration so I just scanned the QR code with my phone. I learned this opens the default wg port.
Now, you can never be 100% safe, but is my simple setup safe/solid enough?
9 times out of 10 I thinker with it when I am at home
It’s still a work in progress and I am open to any kind of suggestions
If you use WireGuard for local access, I don’t think you need to open any port on your firewall, unless you are sharing your plex with other people that do not have access via WireGuard. But I know just enough to get me in trouble, so I’m sure I’ll be corrected on this.
90% sure wireguard (the VPN server) is going to need an open port if you want to connect from the outside.
