Gatekeeper is a daemon I wrote to see what my IoT hardware is doing in my home network. Still developed, it should already be useful as an alternative to default DHCP & DNS servers in home routers.

I'd like to share the project that I've worked on the past couple of weeks. I've started it after finding about how professional routers (specificaly Unifi) are managed and thinking that there should be a simalar open-source software for home networks.

In the near future I'd like to support automatic updates, interface auto-configuration, port redirection, UPnP, ad blocking and other functions that make home networks more transparent and easier to control.

This is really cool. Is there any way to integrate it into OpenWRT?

Unfortunately not yet - I'll try to look into that though. IIRC the appliance routers are often based on MIPS. It's going to be fun :P
