Build

go-tun2socks is using cgo, thus a C compiler is required.

go get github.com/eycorsican/go-tun2socks
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/eycorsican/go-tun2socks
go get -d ./...
make clean && make build
./build/tun2socks -h

Cross Compiling

An alternative way to build (or cross compile) tun2socks is to use xgo, to use xgo, you also need docker:

# install docker: https://docs.docker.com/install

# install xgo
go get github.com/karalabe/xgo

go get github.com/eycorsican/go-tun2socks
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/eycorsican/go-tun2socks
go get -d ./...
make clean && make release
ls ./build

Customizing Build

The default build behavior is to include all available modules, ends up a fat binary that will contain modules you may not need. It's easy to customize the build to include only modules you want by modifying the Makefile, for example, you may build go-tun2socks with only the socks proxy handler by setting the BUILD_TAGS variable before calling make:

# socks handler only
BUILD_TAGS=socks make

# socks handler with DNS cache
BUILD_TAGS="socks dnscache" make

Run

./build/tun2socks -tunName tun1 -tunAddr 240.0.0.2 -tunGw 240.0.0.1 -proxyType socks -proxyServer 1.2.3.4:1086

Note that the TUN device may have a different name, and it should be a different name on Windows unless you have renamed it, so make sure use ifconfig, ipconfig or ip addr to check it out.

Create TUN device and Configure Routing Table

Suppose your original gateway is 192.168.0.1. The proxy server address is 1.2.3.4.

The following commands will need root permissions.

macOS

The program will automatically create a TUN device for you on macOS. To show the created TUN device, use ifconfig.

Delete original gateway:

route delete default

Add our TUN interface as the default gateway:

route add default 240.0.0.1

Add a route for your proxy server to bypass the TUN interface:

route add 1.2.3.4/32 192.168.0.1

Linux

The program will not create the TUN device for you on Linux. You need to create the TUN device by yourself:

ip tuntap add mode tun dev tun1
ip addr add 240.0.0.1 dev tun1
ip link set dev tun1 up

Delete original gateway:

ip route del default

Add our TUN interface as the default gateway:

ip route add default via 240.0.0.1

Add a route for your proxy server to bypass the TUN interface:

ip route add 1.2.3.4/32 via 192.168.0.1

Windows

使用教程 - Tutorial in Chinese

To create a TUN device on Windows, you need Tap-windows, refer here for more information.

Add our TUN interface as the default gateway:

# Using 240.0.0.1 is not allowed on Windows, we use 10.0.0.1 instead
route add 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 metric 6

Add a route for your proxy server to bypass the TUN interface:

route add 1.2.3.4 192.168.0.1 metric 5

A few notes for using V2Ray proxy handler

Using V2Ray proxy handler: tun2socks -proxyType v2ray -vconfig config.json
V2Ray proxy handler dials connections with a V2Ray Instance
Configuration file must in JSON format
Proxy server addresses in the configuration file should be IPs and not domains except your system DNS will match "direct" rules
Configuration file should not contain direct domain rules, since they cause infinitely looping requests
Dynamic routing happens prior to packets input to lwIP, the V2Ray Router is used to check if the IP packet matching "direct" tag, information available for the matching process are (protocol, destination ip, destination port)
To enable dynamic routing, just set the -gateway argument, for example: tun2socks -proxyType v2ray -vconfig config.json -gateway 192.168.0.1
The tag "direct" is hard coded to identify direct rules, which if dynamic routing is enabled, will indicate adding routes to the original gateway for the corresponding IP packets
Inbounds are not necessary

TODO

Built-in routing rules and routing table management
Support ICMP packets forwarding
Make conn handlers io.ReadWriteCloser
Add Close() method for core.LWIPStack
Support TAP device in order to support IPv6 on Windows

Development

The core part of this project is the core package, it focuses on tun2socks's 2 part, the core package has fully IPv4/IPv6, TCP/UDP support, and only depends on lwIP (including a few platform-dependent code) and Go's standard library. On the one hand, IP packets input to or output from the lwIP Stack that initialized by core.NewLWIPStack(), on the other hand, TCP/UDP connections would "socksified" by the core package and can be handled by your own core.TCPConnHandler/core.UDPConnHandler implementation.

As for the tun part, different OS may has it's own interfaces.

For example:

macOS
- macOS has TUN/TAP support by its BSD kernel
- Apple also provides an easy way to filter inbound or outbound IP packets by IP Filters (Proxifier seems use this method)
Linux
- Linux has TUN/TAP support by the kernel
Windows
- Windows has no kernel support for TUN/TAP, but OpenVPN has implemented one
iOS
- Apple provides NEPacketTunnelProvider, and one may read/write IP packets from/to the packetFlow
Android
- I am not familiar with Android, but it uses Linux as kernel so should also has TUN/TAP drivers support
- Android also provides an easy way to read/write IP packets with VpnService.Builder

Sample code for creating a lwIP Stack and doing IP packets inputing/outputing, please refer cmd/tun2socks/main.go. Sample code for implementing core.TCPConnHandler/core.UDPConnHandler, please refer proxy/*.
