Description of Changes

Moved Nginx, OpenVPN and FreeRADIUS to a shared ingress network for published ports, while keeping backend services on their existing IPv4 network. IPv6 on the ingress network is optional and remains disabled by default.

  • Added INGRESS_IPV6_ENABLED, disabled by default, to enable IPv6 on the ingress network and configure default Nginx and FreeRADIUS IPv6 listeners.
  • Preserved explicit Nginx listener overrides, including empty values, and custom Nginx configuration behavior.
  • Added configuration tests and documented networking behavior, deployment requirements and the new setting.

Screenshot

Instead of reporting internal IP address of Docker Host, the Device.last_ip reports the public IPv6.

Walkthrough

Compose adds an optional IPv6 ingress network for Nginx, FreeRADIUS, and OpenVPN. Container startup configures Nginx and FreeRADIUS IPv6 listeners based on INGRESS_IPV6_ENABLED. The documentation and tests cover network settings, listener behavior, and IPv6 access requirements. Auto-install upgrades now require Docker Compose 2.33.1 or later.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to f2c5c

The change adds optional IPv6 ingress, disabled by default, and an upgrade check that stops before replacing an install when Docker Compose is missing or older than 2.33.1. No remaining merge-blocking risk was identified.

Explanation

The title uses the required "[change]" prefix and describes the main change: public-facing services (Nginx, OpenVPN, FreeRADIUS) were moved to a shared ingress network. This matches the raw summary of the compose changes and the PR objectives.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template and covers the main requirements. The checklist is marked, including manual testing, tests, and documentation. It describes the changes: a shared ingress network for Nginx, OpenVPN, and FreeRADIUS, the new INGRESS_IPV6_ENABLED setting (disabled by default), preservation of explicit Nginx listener overrides, and the added tests and docs. It includes a screenshot. The description does not link an issue, but the template marks that as N/A in this case. It does not mention the Docker Engine 28 and Compose 2.33.1 requirements or the Compose upgrade check, which the docs and tests cover. These are minor gaps.

Full details: Ui Changes, Regression Test, Docs

Explanation

The check has three parts that apply to this PR. Two pass, and the screenshot part fails. 1. Regression tests: PASS. The diff adds five tests to TestLocalUtils in tests/runtests.py (+257 lines). It also adds tests/scripts/freeradius_ipv6.sh and changes tests/scripts/auto_install_upgrade.sh. They cover the ingress network, the Nginx and FreeRADIUS IPv6 listeners, and the Compose version check. 2. New feature documented: PASS. INGRESS_IPV6_ENABLED appears in docs/user/settings.rst (line 41 and near line 908). It also appears in docs/user/quickstart.rst (line 128). The architecture doc was updated as well. 3. Documentation for changed documented features: PASS. The architecture, quickstart, and settings docs describe the new networking behavior and the Compose 2.33.1 requirement. 4. Screenshots for visible UI changes: FAIL. The PR description states that Device.last_ip changes. The value used to show the internal Docker host IP. It now shows the public IPv6 address. This is a visible end-user change. The description includes one screenshot. It shows only the after state. It has no before screenshot. Limitation: The device UI is not in this repository. This change alters only the value that the UI displays. This weakens the finding somewhat. The PR author still treated the change as visible by adding a screenshot. That screenshot lacks the required before image.

Resolution

Add a before screenshot to the PR description. It should show the Last ip field with the internal Docker host IP, taken before this change. Keep the existing after screenshot. Label both images so a reviewer can compare them.

Review comments at @docker-compose.yml:
- Line 151: Update the automatic upgrade flow in upgrade_docker_openwisp to
verify that the installed Docker Compose version is at least 2.33.1 before
download_docker_openwisp can remove or replace the existing checkout. If it is
older, stop the upgrade with instructions to upgrade Compose, or upgrade the
Compose plugin first; do not rely on setup_docker, since an existing Docker
installation skips its version checks.

Review comments at @tests/runtests.py:
- Line 1201: Update the default-network test’s Compose invocation so it uses an
empty temporary env file, following the neighboring tests’ existing pattern;
removing INGRESS_IPV6_ENABLED from the subprocess environment alone does not
prevent Compose from reading the project .env. Apply the same isolation to the
enabled-IPv6 test and ensure that test supplies its intended IPv6 setting
explicitly rather than relying on the project .env.
