BroAgent
The connection-back agent of BroProxy: a machine behind NAT calls the proxy itself.
| Version | X.01-10ECO07 (per README) |
|---|---|
| Status | Active development (in one repository with BroProxy) |
| Platforms | Linux: the same processors as BroProxy |
| Licence | Apache License 2.0 |
| For whom | Those whose machine with Internet access is behind NAT, a firewall or a mobile operator and accepts no incoming connections. |
What it is
BroAgent opens every connection to BroProxy itself; no port is opened on the agent's machine. If an incoming rule is possible, the agent is not needed: a line in the bproxy.peers file on the proxy side is enough.
Why
To give the proxy a way out through a node that cannot be called.
Quick start Installation
apt install ./bagent_<version>_arm64.deb # the file name as in Releases
# tune /etc/bagent/ (the samples say <password>), then start the service
