Hello! I recently finalized what I feel is a complete configuration for a self-hosted VPN server, utilizing a Raspberry Pi 4b. Networking is not my forte, so I’m hoping to get some feedback on my setup to make sure it’s complete, secure, and doesn’t create any backdoors into my network:

VPN Host: Raspberry Pi 4b running PiVPN configured for WireGuard, static IP, wired connection to router

Router: ASUS RT86u Pro, native firmware, guest network and VLAN dedicated for the RPi4 subnet, port forwarding configured for RPi4 static IP on 51820 UDP

I think that’s everything. Anything else I could add or may have looked over?

Edit: fwiw, I only intend to use this VPN for personal use while traveling. Configuration will be on a Beryl AX travel router connected to hotel and/or public WiFi.
