Selective Routing
Route only specific traffic through VPN tunnels. Send Discord direct, Netflix through VPN, and everything else through your default gateway.
Self-hosted firewall control
Control WireGuard routing on OPNsense from one local console.
Gator gives homelab operators a calmer way to manage VPN routing, site-to-site tunnels, backups, and drift recovery without living in firewall menus all day.

Capabilities
Built for operators who know their network
Gator doesn't try to abstract away your firewall. It gives you faster, safer tools for the things you already do manually in OPNsense.
WireGuard Management
Deploy and manage WireGuard configurations across multiple OPNsense instances. No more hand-editing config files.
Drift Detection
When someone edits firewall rules directly in OPNsense, Gator notices. Review changes, re-adopt, or restore from backup.
Multi-Instance
Manage multiple OPNsense firewalls from a single control plane. Switch between production and lab environments instantly.
Backup & Restore
Download configuration snapshots, migrate between instances, and recover from mistakes without rebuilding from scratch.
Local-First
Runs entirely on your network. No cloud accounts, no telemetry, no external dependencies. Your firewall data stays yours.
Workflow
Three steps to operational clarity
Stop managing firewall state through brittle manual edits. Gator gives you a single source of truth that stays in sync with your OPNsense instances.
Connect your firewall
Add your OPNsense instance, verify API credentials, and let Gator discover what's already configured.
Define your policies
Create routing rules, configure WireGuard tunnels, and set up selective traffic policies in the UI.
Deploy and monitor
Push changes to your firewall. Gator tracks drift, handles rollbacks, and keeps everything in sync.
Open Source
Your network, your control
Gator is GPLv3 licensed and runs entirely on your infrastructure. No cloud lock-in, no subscription fees, no hidden telemetry. Just a solid tool that works.
GPLv3 licensed — use it, modify it, share it
Self-hosted on your own infrastructure
No cloud dependencies or external APIs
