S3 appendix CGNAT smoke test run live on felhom-pve (agent v0.64.0) with a USB-tethered phone. Tunnel established + held its NAT mapping across a 32-min idle soak on PersistentKeepalive=25 alone (0 stalls, final ping no-bounce). - §7: open-validation CLOSED; two honest caveats kept (SIM had a public mobile IPv4 so true CGNAT 100.64/10 not reproduced — retest-when-able; + MTU). - §4.3: mobile outer path MTU ~1400 black-holed bulk data at the shipped 1420; MTU 1340 restored the PBS page. OPEN DECISION: permanent vs per-connection. - §4.4: keepalive 32-min mobile-NAT hold datapoint. - §4.2: dual-stack v6 trap (wg-quick prefers endpoint AAAA, rides un-NATed v6). - §8: S6 row CGNAT closure marked done. - REPORT.md: overwritten with this operational-validation summary. Runbook: RUNBOOK-s3-cgnat-smoke. Docs-only; no agent/hub/controller code.

REPORT — S3 appendix: CGNAT smoke test (operational validation, docs-only in this repo) (2026-07-04)
Ran the deferred S3 appendix: the one open transport caveat in 06-offsite-connectivity.md §7 —
does plain-WireGuard (box dials out + PersistentKeepalive=25) establish and hold a mapping
through a mobile-carrier NAT? Executed live on felhom-pve (demo-felhom, agent v0.64.0) with a
USB-tethered Xiaomi Mi 11i. No code touched; the only host changes were runtime ip/dhclient
one-shots, all reverted to the Phase-0 baseline at the end.
Method (surgical, SSH-safe): kept the box on its wired default; steered only ep0's /32
out the phone so just the tunnel's outer UDP traversed the carrier NAT. Neutralized the phone's
RA-provided IPv6 + pinned ep0→v4 so the tunnel took the v4/NAT path (not un-NATed v6). 32-min
idle soak sampling handshake age every 30 s. Full restore verified against the captured baseline.
Findings:
- Uplink: phone got a public mobile IPv4 (
84.225.188.131, Magyar Telekom) — a real single-NAT traversal (phone tether NAT), not true CGNAT100.64/10. Recorded as such. - Handshake/PBS: established over the mobile NAT path (endpoint v4
167.233.158.164:443); in-tunnel ping 4/4 ~57 ms; PBS login page reachable after the MTU fix. - MTU (actionable): outer path MTU ~1400 B → shipped
wg-felhomMTU 1420 black-holed bulk data (ping/handshake healthy, PBS page empty). MTU 1340 (= 1400 − 60) restored it; 1360 failed. Recorded in §4.3 with an OPEN DECISION: permanent fleet-wide lower MTU vs connection-type-dependent (1420 fixed-line / ≤1340 mobile, or MSS clamp). - Soak: 64 samples, max handshake age 125 s (normal rekey), zero stalls, final ping after 32 min idle with no bounce → mapping held on keepalive alone.
- v6 trap: a dual-stack mobile uplink made
wg-quickprefer the endpoint AAAA and ride un-NATed IPv6 until v4 was forced (recorded in §4.2).
Doc edits (this commit): 06-offsite-connectivity.md — §7 open-validation CLOSED;
§4.3 MTU mobile finding + open decision; §4.4 keepalive 32-min mobile hold; §4.2 dual-stack v6
trap; §8 S6 row updated. Runbook: RUNBOOK-s3-cgnat-smoke.
Still open: true-CGNAT-SIM retest (deferred, low risk — "when able"); the §4.3 MTU permanent-vs-per-connection decision; S4 PBS-over-tunnel; S5 DR consume; S6 tunnel-health alerting.
