Features

Shadowsocks-libev is writen in pure C and only depends on libev and openssl.

In normal usage, the memory consumption is about 600KB and the CPU utilization is no more than 5% on a low-end router (Buffalo WHR-G300N V2 with a 400MHz MIPS CPU, 32MB memory and 4MB flash).

Installation

Build the binary like this:

    sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf libtool libssl-dev
    ./configure && make
    sudo make install

Usage

      -p <server_port>           port number of your remote server
      -l <local_port>>           port number of your local server
      -k <password>              password of your remote server

      [-m <encrypt_method>]      encrypt method, supporting table, rc4,

      [-t <timeout>]             socket timeout in seconds
      [-c <config_file>]         json format config file

      [-i <interface>]           specific network interface to bind,
                                 only avaliable in local and server modes
      [-b <local_address>]       specific local address to bind,
                                 only avaliable in local and redir modes
      [-u]                       udprelay mode to supprot udp traffic

notes:

    ss-redir provides a transparent proxy function and only works on the 
    Linux platform with iptables.

Advanced usage

The latest shadowsocks-libev has provided a redir mode. You can configure your linux based box or router to proxy all tcp traffic transparently.

# Create new chain
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -N SHADOWSOCKS

# Ignore your shadowsocks server's addresses
# It's very IMPORTANT, just be careful.
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 123.123.123.123 -j RETURN

# Ignore LANs and any other addresses you'd like to bypass the proxy
# See Wikipedia and RFC5735 for full list of reserved networks.
# See ashi009/bestroutetb for a highly optimized CHN route list.
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 0.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 10.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 169.254.0.0/16 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 172.16.0.0/12 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 192.168.0.0/16 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 224.0.0.0/4 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 240.0.0.0/4 -j RETURN

# Anything else should be redirected to shadowsocks's local port
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 12345

# Apply the rules
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -j SHADOWSOCKS

# Start the shadowsocks-redir
root@Wrt:~# ss-redir -c /etc/config/shadowsocks.json -f /var/run/shadowsocks.pid

Security Tips

Although shadowsocks-libev can handle thousands of concurrent connections nicely, we still recommend to set up your server's firewall rules to limit connections from each user.

# Up to 32 connections are enough for normal usages
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport ${SHADOWSOCKS_PORT} -m connlimit --connlimit-above 32 -j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset
