The Teleporter project allows you to create your own network, it is a simple, one binary super-server that breaks through network boundaries
Teleporter, while fully functional is still a beta. (Use at your own discression)
- Onboards traffic through a Socks5 server (+ VPN support in the future) which can be configured on a browser or on the whole OS
- Creates strong bi-directional connections (tethers) to other teleporter instances that can traverse network firewalls
- Combats "head of line" problems by having multiple connections in each tether
- Routes traffic between teleporter nodes by following simple wildecard rules in the config file
- Selectively exposes specific IPs or Domain names in the network to connected teleport nodes
- Support for multipls transport protocols (currently only TLS, future work: dtls/udp)
- Can be chained to create a multi-hop network, or any other network formation you desire.
- A powerfull multiplexor engine, allows all traffic to be sent over a finite number of connections (Thanks to Alan Shreve's muxado project)
- No slowdown for traffic that enters & exist locally (local socks5 connections)
- Works on any port
- No software lags for relays, only mandatory network lags
- Http proxy support for outgoing tls connections (using "CONNECT" like any normal https conn)
- Support for Http proxy authentication
- Inter-node connections (tethers) are TLS encrypted
- socks5 connections can be password protected (although not encrypted)
- socks5 connections can be restricted to accept only from localhost
- Authentication features are still TBD
- Stay connected to home equipment without port mapping
- Seamlessly RDP/VNC into multiple networks for remote support
- Create secure agent connections from customer sites to cloud services
- Bridge network gaps without help from your IT department
- Stay connected to work without using a VPN
- Use as a custom VPN to spoof your origin, protect your privacy and gain access to location based services
- Expose on-premise webservers to potential customers or cloud testing farms through socks5 +auth
Running release samples:
- Download the latest build of Teleporter
- Use “run.bat” in any of the examples to run several nodes on localhost
- Configure your browser to use the socks5 proxy now running on localhost:10101 to see it in action.
Setting up a real network:
- Spin up some free tier cloud machine (GCP will give you $300 for a year, with no obligations, just by feeding in credit card info, AWS free tier machines are also an option)
- Place a node on that machine & open the relay port to the public
- Deploy teleport nodes on your favorite machines & configure (see below) to construct your own custom slice of internet!
Running samples from code:
- go get github.com/amitbet/teleporter
- cd agent/cli
- go build .
- cd ../../examples
- Use "run.bat" in any of the example directories
- Configure your browser to use the socks5 proxy now running on localhost:10101
- Deploy on your favorite machines & configure to construct your own custom slice of internet!
- KeepAlive messages for TLS connections
- Add VPN support by using gotun2socks in a way similar to brook
- DTLS realy (secure udp) support
- Reconnect closed connections
- implement High Availability by connecting multiple times through a LB util enough connections report containing a link to the requested target host.
- Some embedded webUI (maybe experiment with packr)
