Johnathan Corgan b8b1bb03a0 Cover UDP forward, multi-forward, and multi-client paths in gateway-test
Extend the gateway integration suite with three previously unexercised
runtime paths. All three share testing/static/scripts/gateway-test.sh
and testing/static/docker-compose.yml so they land as one commit.

6A — UDP port forwarding runtime path. Add udp 18081 -> [fd02::20]:8081
to inject_gateway_config() and a phase-7 case where gw-client runs an
inline Python UDP echo server bound [::]:8081 and gw-server sends a
UDP probe to [GW_MESH_IP]:18081 via inline python3, asserting the
echoed payload prefix. The config layer already accepted proto: udp
(test_port_forwards_same_port_different_proto_ok) but the UDP NAT
rule shape and conntrack handling differ from TCP and were unverified.
Uses Python rather than socat because fips-test:latest does not ship
socat; nc -u IPv6 round-trip semantics are messier than a Python
one-liner.

6B — Second simultaneous TCP forward. Add tcp 18082 -> [fd02::20]:8081
alongside the existing 18080 forward. Phase 7 now greps the daemon's
nft DNAT table for all three rules (18080, 18082, 18081) and runs
HTTP fetches through both TCP forwards with distinct backend payloads
(inbound-forward-ok vs inbound-forward-ok-2) so a misrouted response
fails the assertion.

11A — Concurrent multi-client flows. Add gw-client-2 service to
docker-compose mirroring gw-client (IPv6 fd02::21, IPv4 172.20.1.21).
Phase 3 sets the fd01::/112 route on both. Phase 4 issues DNS lookups
from both, asserts they receive distinct virtual IPs, and queries the
gateway control socket (show_mappings) to confirm exactly 2 active
mappings (5-attempt retry loop tolerates snapshot-publish lag). Phase
5 launches both curl requests concurrently as background processes,
asserts each response. Validates concurrent NAT mappings, pool
contention, proxy NDP under simultaneous LAN-client traffic — all
real-world deployment shape that was not pinned.

Phase 8 reclamation timing unchanged (TTL=5s, grace=5s, 25s wait
covers both mapping ticks generously even with a slight stagger).

FIPS Testing

Integration and simulation test harnesses for FIPS, using Docker containers running the full protocol stack.

Test Harnesses

static/ -- Static Docker Network

Fixed topologies with manual scripts for building, config generation, connectivity tests (ping, iperf), and network impairment (netem). Useful for deterministic debugging and validating specific topology configurations.

Topology Nodes Transport Description
mesh 5 UDP Sparse mesh, 6 links, multi-hop
chain 5 UDP Linear chain, max 4-hop paths
mesh-public 5+1 UDP Mesh with external public node
tcp-chain 3 TCP Linear chain over TCP (port 8443)
rekey 5 UDP Rekey integration test topology

tor/ -- Tor Transport Integration

End-to-end Tor transport testing with Docker containers running real Tor daemons. Requires internet access for Tor bootstrapping.

Scenario Description
socks5-outbound Outbound SOCKS5 connections through Tor to clearnet peer
directory-mode Inbound via HiddenServiceDir onion service (co-located)

nat/ -- NAT Traversal Lab

Real Docker NAT traversal tests for the Nostr/STUN bootstrap path, using router containers with iptables-based NAT, a local Nostr relay, and a local STUN responder.

Scenario Description
cone Two NATed peers establish a UDP traversal path
symmetric UDP traversal fails under symmetric NAT, TCP fallback wins
lan Peers on the same LAN prefer local addresses over reflexive

chaos/ -- Stochastic Simulation

Automated network testing with configurable node counts, topology algorithms (random geometric, Erdos-Renyi, chain, explicit), and fault injection (netem mutation, link flaps, traffic generation, node churn). 20 scenarios covering general stress testing, cost-based parent selection, mixed link technologies (fiber/Bluetooth/WiFi), transport-specific validation (UDP, TCP, Ethernet), and ECN/congestion testing. Scenarios are defined in YAML and executed via a Python harness that manages the full lifecycle: topology generation, Docker orchestration, fault scheduling, log collection, and analysis.
