How to setup cloud VPN tunnel using IPsec as third party?

I'm using meteor and hosting my app on galaxy.meteor.com (Pro)

And I'm integrating with a third party that requires VPN tunnel configuration. Unfortunately galaxy only provide network customization for (Enterprise) containers, which is way out of our budget.

So my idea was to setup a cloud VPN as a third party router, and use it as follows

Galaxy <--(https)req--> VPN <--(tunnel)req--> Third party

Is this possible? and if so, how to do it?

Solution

  • I guess you have to provide a meteor SERVER (backend) connection via VPN to the third party side? Something like a REST API?

    So yes, you can do something like your request as suggested.

    Checkout "HAPROXY" and / or "remote proxy configuration".

    If you take the option of a small cloud server you may run OPNSENSE on that system and configure your HAPROXY and IPSEC tunnel via its web interface.

    Update:

    Here you get some links how to run AWS VPC (EC2) with Opnsense:
