it might be better to skip the cloud server and use cloudflare for dynamic dns. The standardized way to restrict access to websites is with client certificates or a basic authentication (user/pass) proxy. That would help avoid issues with internet traffic passing through the VPN accidentally.
Thanks! Last time I checked cloudflare had bandwidth limits. My primary uses for it may use a decent amount of bandwidth as I’ll be hosting jellyfin as well as my backup solution.
Should work well for that!
If you use cloudflare for dns only and turn cloudflare proxying off, none of your data or traffic goes to cloudflare's servers. They just act as your dns server, telling your devices what IP to go to.
