ZeroTier is a powerful virtual network layer — but it requires installing the ZeroTier client on every device you want to reach. For MSPs managing cameras, PBX systems, and managed switches, that's impossible. ProxyLink puts one WireGuard tunnel on the router and opens browser access to every device on the LAN.
| Feature | ProxyLink | ZeroTier |
|---|---|---|
| Agent required on every device | No (router covers LAN) | Yes — every device |
| Reach NVR cameras, PBX, switches | ||
| Browser RDP/VNC/SSH built in | ||
| One tunnel = entire LAN + VLANs | ||
| EU-hosted infrastructure | US | |
| NIS2 audit log + session recording | ||
| MSP multi-tenant management | ||
| Setup complexity for MSP use | Low | High (virtual L2 networking) |
| WireGuard protocol | Custom (ZT protocol) | |
| Free tier available | ||
| Works without IT knowledge on-site |
ZeroTier creates a virtual Ethernet network across the internet. It's extremely flexible — but setting it up correctly for MSP use requires understanding virtual L2 networks, managed routes, bridge configurations, and flow rules. It's a networking tool, not a remote access product.
Add a WireGuard tunnel on the client's router — MikroTik, pfSense, OpenWRT, or any Linux box. ProxyLink generates the config. Paste it, apply it, done. Every device on the LAN appears in your dashboard immediately. No virtual networking knowledge required.
ZeroTier requires the ZeroTier client to be running on any device you want in your virtual network. NVR cameras running proprietary firmware, IP PBX systems, managed switches, and firewalls cannot run ZeroTier. These are the exact devices MSPs need to reach most.
ProxyLink's WireGuard tunnel sits on the router at the network edge. All traffic from the ProxyLink server is routed through the tunnel to any IP on the LAN — 192.168.1.x, 10.0.0.x, whatever VLAN you need. No device configuration needed after the router tunnel is up.
