OpenWrt

Ansible project to configure a device as an OpenWrt router.

This project has no objective on becoming a template to be used by others. There is hardcoded information in most files. Use as example for your own OpenWrt installations.

The router configured by this repository is a NanoPi R6S. It handles a single 1Gbps symmetrical internet connection, and a 2.5gbps lan connection.

Why?

Do I need all this for my network? No.
It's overkill? Yes.
Would I do it again? Yes!

Prerequisites

• mise - At the first run execute mise install to bring all dependencies into scope.

Quick Start

1. Flash the router — see Firmware for building and flashing the image.
2. Create a .vault_pass file at the root containing the vault password, with permissions 600.
3. Run task setup (once, to install Ansible collections)
4. Run task apply
