  6. No trolling.

Pangolin is based off of Traefik if I’m not mistaken, should be able to use Traefiks IPAllowlist middleware to blacklist all IP addresses and only whitelisting the known few, that way you can expose your application to the internet knowing you have that restriction in place for those who connect to your service.

If the people you want to have access have static, exclusive ip addresses. Which is pretty unusual, these days.

Oh yeah I’m aware, if people don’t want to use a VPN then I suggest this but give them the advisory warning.

Actually, recently I’ve been using a fork of IPAllowList which accepts DDNS addresses, but that usually is for more technical folk who would probably rather use a VPN then purchase a domain and associate it with their network.
