ARCnet Platform / Independent network infrastructure

Your network.
Your rules.

Routers, devices and servers — in infrastructure you control. ARCnet brings together software and protocols to connect and manage them.

Platform architecture

01 / ARCnet

Infrastructure
belongs to the user.

ARCnet Platform is a noncommercial project for building and managing distributed, user-controlled network infrastructure.

An instance is an independently managed environment. Host it on your own server or a VPS; infrastructure operated by the developer is optional.

ARCnet is not tied to a single VPN protocol. Supported network technologies become capabilities of your infrastructure.

Identity and access rights are separate from discovery. Registration in the future ARCnet Directory will be optional.

02 / Components

ARCnet builds on proven wwGate components. Their migration and preparation for independent publication are in progress.

Component	Purpose	Publication

04ARCnet Supervisor	A role and protocol for privileged service access.	Planned
05ARCnet Agent	Connect devices and resources that are not Cloud Routers.	Planned
06ARCnet Directory	A planned optional instance directory. Not a source of trust.	Planned
