21.7 Legacy Series / TOR and obfs4 bridges
« on: December 17, 2021, 08:19:29 am »
Hello,
situation: tor is started to being blocked on country wide policy, and obviously it stopped to work.
How it was:
Tor plugin was receiving connections on 9040 port, firewall/NAT was set up to forward all "blocked" traffic to tor. And it was working really cool, till some days ago.
I tried to run fresh tor-browser from same network - it is working without issues.
Also, i've read that: https://blog.torproject.org/tor-censorship-in-russia/ and https://forum.torproject.net/t/tor-blocked-in-russia-how-to-circumvent-censorship/982
noticed, that there are talks about obfs4 bridges. so i've got some bridges, but looks like tor on opnsense doesn't support that.
So asking for advice - are there any workarounds?
