May I suggest adding Cloudflared in GL repo?

The setup step should be very simple.
I have tried it on AX1800.

Cloudflared Tunnel in OpenWRT

Running the cloudflared binary as a service in OpenWRT

Yet I have problem with VPN policy with this.
I have set policy based on client device.
However, CURL to https://ifconfig.co on AX1800 gives the VPN server address, rather than my ISP address.

Thanks.

VPN policies are only effective for client devices. In other words, the VPN policy don’t take effect for processes on the router.

Vpn policy doesn’t not control the router itself.

This is a propritary service that doesn’t seem to add any value, and obscures the technology that they are using so that they can milk you.
