What is Nebula?

\n

Nebula is a scalable overlay networking tool with a focus on performance, simplicity and security.
\nIt lets you seamlessly connect computers anywhere in the world. Nebula is portable, and runs on Linux, OSX, Windows, iOS, and Android.
\nIt can be used to connect a small number of computers, but is also able to connect tens of thousands of computers.

\n

Nebula incorporates a number of existing concepts like encryption, security groups, certificates,
\nand tunneling.
\nWhat makes Nebula different to existing offerings is that it brings all of these ideas together,
\nresulting in a sum that is greater than its individual parts.

\n

Technical Overview

\n

Nebula is a mutually authenticated peer-to-peer software-defined network based on the Noise Protocol Framework.
\nNebula uses certificates to assert a node's IP address, name, and membership within user-defined groups.
\nNebula's user-defined groups allow for provider agnostic traffic filtering between nodes.
\nDiscovery nodes (aka lighthouses) allow individual peers to find each other and optionally use UDP hole punching to establish connections from behind most firewalls or NATs.
\nUsers can move data between nodes in any number of cloud service providers, datacenters, and endpoints, without needing to maintain a particular addressing scheme.

\n

Nebula uses Elliptic-curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange and AES-256-GCM in its default configuration.

\n

Nebula was created to provide a mechanism for groups of hosts to communicate securely, even across the internet, while enabling expressive firewall definitions similar in style to cloud security groups.

\n

Getting started (quickly)

\n

To set up a Nebula network, you'll need:

\n

1. The Nebula binaries or Distribution Packages for your specific platform. Specifically you'll need `nebula-cert` and the specific nebula binary for each platform you use.

\n

2. (Optional, but you really should..) At least one discovery node with a routable IP address, which we call a lighthouse.

\n

Nebula lighthouses allow nodes to find each other, anywhere in the world. A lighthouse is the only node in a Nebula network whose IP should not change. Running a lighthouse requires very few compute resources, and you can easily use the least expensive option from a cloud hosting provider. If you're not sure which provider to use, a number of us have used $6/mo DigitalOcean droplets as lighthouses.

\n

Once you have launched an instance, ensure that Nebula udp traffic (default port udp/4242) can reach it over the internet.

\n

3. A Nebula certificate authority, which will be the root of trust for a particular Nebula network.

\n

./nebula-cert ca -name \"Myorganization, Inc\"

\n

This will create files named ca.key and ca.cert in the current directory. The ca.key file is the most sensitive file you'll create, because it is the key used to sign the certificates for individual nebula nodes/hosts. Please store this file somewhere safe, preferably with strong encryption.

\n

Be aware! By default, certificate authorities have a 1-year lifetime before expiration. See this guide for details on rotating a CA.

\n

4. Nebula host keys and certificates generated from that certificate authority

\n

This assumes you have four nodes, named lighthouse1, laptop, server1, host3. You can name the nodes any way you'd like, including FQDN. You'll also need to choose IP addresses and the associated subnet. In this example, we are creating a nebula network that will use 192.168.100.x/24 as its network range. This example also demonstrates nebula groups, which can later be used to define traffic rules in a nebula network.

\n

./nebula-cert sign -name \"lighthouse1\" -ip \"192.168.100.1/24\"\n./nebula-cert sign -name \"laptop\" -ip \"192.168.100.2/24\" -groups \"laptop,home,ssh\"\n./nebula-cert sign -name \"server1\" -ip \"192.168.100.9/24\" -groups \"servers\"\n./nebula-cert sign -name \"host3\" -ip \"192.168.100.10/24\"

\n

By default, host certificates will expire 1 second before the CA expires. Use the -duration flag to specify a shorter lifetime.

\n

5. Configuration files for each host

\n

Download a copy of the nebula example configuration.

\n

\n
On the lighthouse node, you'll need to ensure am_lighthouse: true is set.
\n
\n
On the individual hosts, ensure the lighthouse is defined properly in the static_host_map section, and is added to the lighthouse hosts section.
\n

\n

6. Copy nebula credentials, configuration, and binaries to each host

\n

For each host, copy the nebula binary to the host, along with config.yml from step 5, and the files ca.crt, {host}.crt, and {host}.key from step 4.

\n

DO NOT COPY ca.key TO INDIVIDUAL NODES.

\n

7. Run nebula on each host

\n

./nebula -config /path/to/config.yml

\n

For more detailed instructions, find the full documentation here.

\n

Building Nebula from source

\n

Make sure you have go installed and clone this repo. Change to the nebula directory.

\n

To build nebula for all platforms:
\nmake all

\n

To build nebula for a specific platform (ex, Windows):
\nmake bin-windows

\n

See the Makefile for more details on build targets

\n

Curve P256 and BoringCrypto

\n

The default curve used for cryptographic handshakes and signatures is Curve25519. This is the recommended setting for most users. If your deployment has certain compliance requirements, you have the option of creating your CA using nebula-cert ca -curve P256 to use NIST Curve P256. The CA will then sign certificates using ECDSA P256, and any hosts using these certificates will use P256 for ECDH handshakes.

\n

In addition, Nebula can be built using the BoringCrypto GOEXPERIMENT by running either of the following make targets:

\n

make bin-boringcrypto\nmake release-boringcrypto

\n

This is not the recommended default deployment, but may be useful based on your compliance requirements.
