o Major features (directory mirrors):
|
||
|
- Include an opt-in trial list of Default Fallback Directories in
|
||
|
add_default_fallback_dir_servers().
|
||
|
"Tor has included a feature to fetch the initial consensus from nodes
|
||
|
other than the authorities for a while now. We just haven't shipped a
|
||
|
list of alternate locations for clients to go to yet.
|
||
|
Reasons why we might want to ship tor with a list of additional places
|
||
|
where clients can find the consensus is that it makes authority
|
||
|
reachability and BW less important.
|
||
|
We want them to have been around and using their current key, address,
|
||
|
and port for a while now (120 days), and have been running, a guard,
|
||
|
and a v2 directory mirror for most of that time."
|
||
|
We exclude BadExits and tor versions that aren't recommended.
|
||
|
We include an IPv6 address for each FallbackDir (#8374).
|
||
|
(Tor might not use IPv6 fallbacks until #6027 is merged.)
|
||
|
The unit test ensures that we successfully load all included
|
||
|
default fallback directories.
|
||
|
Closes ticket #15775. Patch by "teor".
|
||
|
OnionOO script by "weasel", "teor", "gsathya", and "karsten".
