Best way to forward a static IP address to a dynamic one?

skorupion

Hello everyone,

I've recently bought 16x2TB SAS drives and I'm planning on having them at home. I want to use the server that I'll have remotely also. I'm wondering what would be the best way to forward a static IP address (from a for example VPS) to my home server?

A gre tunnel is probably your best bet, failing that you could tunnel a public IP over wireguard.

If you can live with ipv6 route48 offer wireguard tunnels for free which will work behind NAT.

For GRE the destination IP address changes every few days, and I don't feel like SSH into my server from the local network to reflect that

Then your best bet is probably WireGuardv if you want to keep it hassle-free. You should be able to do a tunnel setup with it where the public IP from the VPS is assigned to your home server.
