Inspired by this comment to try to learn what I’m missing.

  • Cloudflare proxy
  • Reverse Proxy
  • Fail2ban
  • Docker containers on their own networks

Another concern I have is does it need to be on a separate machine on a vlan from the rest of the network or is that too much?

    My new strategy is to block EVERY port except WireGuard. This doesn’t work for things you want to host publicly ofc, like a website, but for most self host stuff I don’t see anything better than that.

      Wow! All 65535 +/-, in and out? That’s one way to skin a cat.

        ez pz:

        #!/usr/sbin/nft -f
table inet filter {
    chain input {
        type filter hook input priority raw; policy accept;
        iif "lo" accept
        ct state established,related accept
        iif "enp1s0" udp dport 51820 accept
        iif "enp1s0" drop
    }

    chain forward {
        type filter hook forward priority raw; policy accept;
        iif "lo" accept
        ct state established,related accept
        iif "enp1s0" udp dport 51820 accept
        iif "enp1s0" drop
    }

    chain output {
        type filter hook output priority raw; policy accept;
    }
}

          I’ve seen it done as such:

          sudo ufw deny out 1:19/tcp sudo ufw deny out 1:19/udp sudo ufw deny out 22:52/tcp sudo ufw deny out 22:52/udp sudo ufw deny out 54:79/tcp sudo ufw deny out 54:79/udp sudo ufw deny out 81:122/tcp sudo ufw deny out 81:122/udp sudo ufw deny out 124:442/tcp sudo ufw deny out 124:442/udp sudo ufw deny out 444:65535/tcp sudo ufw deny out 444:65535/udp

          But your way seems a bit more elegant
