o Major features:
|
|
- Tor now has the ability to wrangle NAT devices like a good network cowbot
|
|
with the tor-fw-helper tool. The tor-fw-helper tool supports Apple's
|
|
NAT-PMP protocol and the UPnP standard for TCP port mapping. This
|
|
optional tool may be enabled at compile time by configuring with
|
|
'--enable-upnp' or '--enable-natpmp' or with both. This tool may be
|
|
called by hand or by Tor. By configuring the PortForwarding option, Tor
|
|
will launch the helper on a regular basis to ensure that the NAT mapping
|
|
is regularly updated. Additionally, a user may also specify an
|
|
alternative helper by using the PortForwardingHelper option. The helper
|
|
may be specified by name or with the full path to the helper. The default
|
|
helper is named 'tor-fw-helper' and any alternative helper must take the
|
|
tor-fw-helper-spec.txt into account.
