o Major features (traffic analysis resistance):
|
|
- Relays and clients will now send a padding cell on idle OR
|
|
connections every 1.5 to 9.5 seconds (tunable via consensus
|
|
parameters). Directory connections and inter-relay connections
|
|
are not padded. Padding is negotiated using Tor's link protocol,
|
|
so both relays and clients must upgrade for this to take effect.
|
|
Clients may still send padding despite the relay's version by
|
|
setting ConnectionPadding 1 in torrc, and may disable padding
|
|
by setting ConnectionPadding 0 in torrc. Padding may be minimized
|
|
for mobile users with the torrc option ReducedConnectionPadding.
|
|
Implements Proposal 251 and Section 2 of Proposal 254; closes ticket
|
|
16861.
|
|
- Relays will publish 24 hour totals of padding and non-padding cell
|
|
counts to their extra-info descriptors, unless PaddingStatistics 0
|
|
is set in torrc. These 24 hour totals are also rounded to multiples
|
|
of 10000.
