Platforms

Linux

  • Should work out of the box on most Linux distributions with iproute2 installed.
  • systemd service scripts are included in the contrib/systemd/ folder so that it runs automatically in the background (using /etc/yggdrasil.conf for configuration), copy the service files into /etc/systemd/system, copy yggdrasil into your $PATH, i.e. /usr/bin, and then enable the service:
systemctl enable yggdrasil
systemctl start yggdrasil
  • Once installed as a systemd service, you can read the yggdrasil output:
systemctl status yggdrasil
journalctl -u yggdrasil

macOS

  • Tested and working out of the box on macOS 10.13 High Sierra.
  • May work in theory on any macOS version with utun support (which was added in macOS 10.7 Lion), although this is untested at present.
  • TAP mode is not supported on macOS.

FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD

  • Works in TAP mode, but currently doesn't work in TUN mode.
  • You may need to create the TAP adapter first if it doesn't already exist, i.e. ifconfig tap0 create.

Windows

  • Tested and working on Windows 7 and Windows 10, and should work on any recent versions of Windows, but it depends on the OpenVPN TAP driver being installed first.
  • Has been proven to work with both the NDIS 5 (tap-windows-9.9.2_3) driver and the NDIS 6 (tap-windows-9.21.2) driver, however there are substantial performance issues with the NDIS 6 driver therefore it is recommended to use the NDIS 5 driver instead.
  • Be aware that connectivity issues can occur on Windows if multiple IPv6 addresses from the fd00::/8 prefix are assigned to the TAP interface. If this happens, then you may need to manually remove the old/unused addresses from the interface (though the code has a workaround in place to do this automatically in some cases).
  • TUN mode is not supported on Windows.
  • Yggdrasil can be installed as a Windows service so that it runs automatically in the background. From an Administrator Command Prompt:
sc create yggdrasil binpath= "\"C:\path\to\yggdrasil.exe\" -useconffile \"C:\path\to\yggdrasil.conf\""
sc config yggdrasil displayname= "Yggdrasil Service"
sc config yggdrasil start= "auto"
sc start yggdrasil
  • Alternatively, if you want the service to autoconfigure instead of using an yggdrasil.conf, replace the sc create line from above with:
sc create yggdrasil binpath= "\"C:\path\to\yggdrasil.exe\" -autoconf"

EdgeRouter

  • Tested and working on the EdgeRouter X, using the vyatta-yggdrasil wrapper package.
