Hosts used to trust the router as the only boundary (servers ran with the
firewall off; service ports were opened globally), so any LAN device could
reach every host service. Move filtering to the hosts as defence in depth
behind the router, which keeps its firewall on and uses a port mapping for
the few ports we actually need.
- base: nftables backend; deny inbound by default; trust the home LAN by
source and the tailnet by interface (restrict the tailnet with ACLs);
suppress per-service `openFirewall` global ports; allow node_exporter only
from the monitoring host. The local podman bridge, the tailnet and the pod
CIDRs are accepted only after the node_exporter drop.
- servers: stop disabling the firewall; drop redundant global port opens
(caddy 80/443, NFS 2049, Jellyfin, localsend/test ports); delete the
redundant desktop firewall module; aarch64/riscv64 import the firewall
explicitly (akane was missing it).
- k3s: Cilium pods (10.0.0.0/8, fd00::/8) may reach host services; drop the
flannel-era cni0/flannel.1 trust.
- youko: postgres listens on localhost + the LAN with pg_hba limited to the
LAN; the NFS export stays LAN-scoped; remove the unauthenticated v2ray
proxy.
- tests: `security-firewall` asserts every host runs the shared firewall, has
the LAN CIDR rule and no global ports.
cilium writes /etc/cni/net.d while istio-cni reads k3s's own dir, so on the new workers the chained plugin never found a network config. Add the symlinks the server module already has.
Add worker-1 (4 vCPU / 16 GiB) on shoryu, and worker-2 (4 vCPU / 16 GiB) plus worker-3 (2 vCPU / 8 GiB) on shushou, as microVMs. They come with a genK3sAgentModule and the per-host/output/home-manager wiring, and are labelled node-role.kubernetes.io/worker=true. The masters keep their control-plane:NoSchedule taint, so workloads land on the workers.
The k3s-test workers never ran (they were stuck waiting for volume
binding) and will be re-added as microVMs, so remove their KubeVirt
configs and everything that only existed for KubeVirt guests:
- hosts/k8s/k3s-test-1-worker-{1,2,3} and their outputs
- lib/genKubeVirtGuestModule.nix and lib/genK3sAgentModule.nix (the
latter was only used by the workers)
- the KubeVirt image upload recipes (upload-vm, upload-idols,
upload-k3s-test) and the kubevirt image package in the idols outputs
- refresh the docs; keep only accurate historical mentions (e.g. the
restic backup path must stay as it is)
