docs: improve proxy CLI param descriptions
Since the proxy component is the most dedicated for public use, more comprehensive docs are good.

### Running a standalone Snowflake proxy
|
||||
|
||||
The Snowflake proxy can be run with the following options:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- These are generated with `go run . --help` -->
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Usage of ./proxy:
|
||||
-allow-non-tls-relay
|
||||
allow relay without tls encryption
|
||||
allow this proxy to pass client's data to the relay in an unencrypted form.
|
||||
This is only useful if the relay doesn't support encryption, e.g. for testing / development purposes.
|
||||
-allow-proxying-to-private-addresses
|
||||
allow forwarding client connections to private IP addresses.
|
||||
Useful when a Snowflake server (relay) is hosted on the same private network as this proxy.
|
||||
-allowed-relay-hostname-pattern string
|
||||
a pattern to specify allowed hostname pattern for relay URL. (default "snowflake.torproject.net$")
|
||||
-broker string
|
||||
broker URL (default "https://snowflake-broker.torproject.net/")
|
||||
-poll-interval duration
|
||||
how often to ask the broker for a new client. Keep in mind that asking for a client will not always result in getting one. Minumum value is 2s. Valid time units are "ms", "s", "m", "h". (default 5s)
|
||||
this proxy will only be allowed to forward client connections to relays (servers) whose URL matches this pattern.
|
||||
Note that a pattern "example.com$" will match "subdomain.example.com" as well as "other-domain-example.com".
|
||||
In order to only match "example.com", prefix the pattern with "^": "^example.com$" (default "snowflake.torproject.net$")
|
||||
-broker URL
|
||||
The URL of the broker server that the proxy will be using to find clients (default "https://snowflake-broker.torproject.net/")
|
||||
-capacity uint
|
||||
maximum concurrent clients (default is to accept an unlimited number of clients)
|
||||
-disableStatsLogger
|
||||
-disable-stats-logger
|
||||
disable the exposing mechanism for stats using logs
|
||||
-ephemeral-ports-range string
|
||||
ICE UDP ephemeral ports range (format:"<min>:<max>")
|
||||
-enableMetrics
|
||||
enable the exposing mechanism for stats using metrics at "/internal/metrics"
|
||||
-ephemeral-ports-range range
|
||||
Set the range of ports used for client connections (format:"<min>:<max>").
|
||||
If omitted, the ports will be chosen automatically.
|
||||
-keep-local-addresses
|
||||
keep local LAN address ICE candidates
|
||||
-log string
|
||||
log filename
|
||||
-metricsAddress string
|
||||
set listening address for metrics service by either hostname or ip-address (default localhost)
|
||||
-metricsPort
|
||||
keep local LAN address ICE candidates.
|
||||
This is usually pointless because Snowflake clients don't usually reside on the same local network as the proxy.
|
||||
-log filename
|
||||
log filename. If not specified, logs will be output to stderr (console).
|
||||
-metrics
|
||||
enable the exposing mechanism for stats using metrics
|
||||
-metrics-address address
|
||||
set listen address for metrics service (default "localhost")
|
||||
-metrics-port int
|
||||
set port for the metrics service (default 9999)
|
||||
-nat-probe-server URL
|
||||
The URL of the server that this proxy will use to check its network NAT type.
|
||||
Determining NAT type helps to understand whether this proxy is compatible with certain clients' NAT (default "https://snowflake-broker.torproject.net:8443/probe")
|
||||
-nat-retest-interval duration
|
||||
the time interval in second before NAT type is retested, 0s disables retest. Valid time units are "s", "m", "h". (default 24h0m0s)
|
||||
-relay string
|
||||
websocket relay URL (default "wss://snowflake.torproject.net/")
|
||||
-outbound-address string
|
||||
bind a specific outbound address. Replace all host candidates with this address without validation.
|
||||
-probeURL string
|
||||
NAT check probe server URL (default "https://snowflake-broker.torproject.net:8443/probe")
|
||||
-stun string
|
||||
stun URL (default "stun:stun.l.google.com:19302")
|
||||
the time interval between NAT type is retests (see "nat-probe-server"). 0s disables retest. Valid time units are "s", "m", "h". (default 24h0m0s)
|
||||
-outbound-address address
|
||||
prefer the given address as outbound address for client connections
|
||||
-poll-interval duration
|
||||
how often to ask the broker for a new client. Keep in mind that asking for a client will not always result in getting one. Minumum value is 2s. Valid time units are "ms", "s", "m", "h". (default 5s)
|
||||
-relay URL
|
||||
The default URL of the server (relay) that this proxy will forward client connections to, in case the broker itself did not specify the said URL (default "wss://snowflake.torproject.net/")
|
||||
-stun URL
|
||||
STUN server `URL` that this proxy will use will use to, among some other things, determine its public IP address (default "stun:stun.l.google.com:19302")
|
||||
-summary-interval duration
|
||||
the time interval to output summary, 0s disables summaries. Valid time units are "s", "m", "h". (default 1h0m0s)
|
||||
the time interval between summary log outputs, 0s disables summaries. Valid time units are "s", "m", "h". (default 1h0m0s)
|
||||
-unsafe-logging
|
||||
prevent logs from being scrubbed
|
||||
keep IP addresses and other sensitive info in the logs
|
||||
-verbose
|
||||
increase log verbosity
|
||||
-version
|
