NAME
----
tor-fw-helper - Manage upstream firewall/NAT devices
SYNOPSIS
--------
**tor-fw-helper** [-h|--help] [-T|--test] [-v|--verbose] [-g|--fetch-public-ip]
-i|--internal-or-port __TCP port__ [-e|--external-or-port _TCP port_]
[-d|--internal-dir-port _TCP port_] [-p|--external-dir-port _TCP port_]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
**tor-fw-helper** currently supports Apple's NAT-PMP protocol and the UPnP
standard for TCP port mapping. It is written as the reference implementation of
tor-fw-helper-spec.txt and conforms to that loose plugin API. If your network
supports either NAT-PMP or UPnP, tor-fw-helper will attempt to automatically
map the required TCP ports for Tor's Or and Dir ports. +
OPTIONS
-------
**-h** or **--help**::
Display help text and exit.
**-v**::
Display verbose output.
**-T** or **--test**::
Display test information and print the test information in
tor-fw-helper.log
**-g** or **--fetch-public-ip**::
Fetch the the public ip address for each supported NAT helper method.
**-i** or **--internal-or-port** __port__::
Inform **tor-fw-helper** of your internal OR port. This is the only
required argument.
**-e** or **--external-or-port** __port__::
Inform **tor-fw-helper** of your external OR port.
**-d** or **--internal-dir-port** __port__::
Inform **tor-fw-helper** of your internal Dir port.
**-p** or **--external-dir-port** __port__::
Inform **tor-fw-helper** of your external Dir port.
BUGS
----
This probably doesn't run on Windows. That's not a big issue, since we don't
really want to deal with Windows before October 2010 anyway.
