Hey, now we are on level 4!
l4p
is a layer 4 proxy implemented by Rust to listen on specific ports and transfer TCP/KCP data to remote addresses(only TCP) according to configuration.
Features
- Listen on specific port and proxy to local or remote port
- SNI-based rule without terminating TLS connection
- DNS-based backend with periodic resolution
Installation
To gain best performance on your computer's architecture, please consider build the source code. First, you may need Rust tool chain.
$ cd l4p
$ cargo build --release
Binary file will be generated at target/release/l4p
, or you can use cargo install --path .
to install.
Or you can use Cargo to install l4p
:
$ cargo install l4p
Or you can download binary file form the Release page.
Configuration
l4p
will read yaml format configuration file from /etc/l4p/l4p.yaml
, and you can set custom path to environment variable L4P_CONFIG
, here is an minimal viable example:
version: 1
log: info
servers:
proxy_server:
listen:
- "127.0.0.1:8081"
default: remote
upstream:
remote: "tcp://www.remote.example.com:8082" # proxy to remote address
There are two upstreams built in:
- Ban, which terminates the connection immediately
- Echo, which reflects back with the input
For detailed configuration, check this example.
Thanks
