Exits and Tor's IPv4 /16 Path Restriction
by teor 16 Mar '20

16 Mar '20

Hi, I'm in contact with one of the exit operators in 185.220/16, which currently contains about 28% of the Tor networks exit capacity: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#aggregate/as/185.220. They have asked me when that /16 will start causing path selection issues for tor clients. The guard and middle probabilities in that /16 are almost 0%, so I think the answer is: "Try not to put guards or middles in that /16." But I thought I'd also mention it here, because there might be wider network health issues I'm not aware of. (Since 0.3.5.1-alpha, Tor also checks the IPv6 /32 during path selection. 2 operators in that IPv4 /16 have separate IPv6 /32s, and the others don't have IPv6. So IPv4 is the stricter condition here.) T -- teor ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Your Tor bridge is running an obsolete version

Hi there, You seem to be running the following Tor bridge, which is great: 64DF5E59804B058E64BF19B6992F1330C73B2CF4 But that Tor version (0.2.9.16) is obsolete, and because of old bugs, we will soon cut bridges running those versions out of the network. Please consider upgrading! You can find Tor packages and instructions for your distro / OS here: <https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/bridge/> Ideally you will switch to keeping up with our stable releases, but if you need a stable that is especially stable, the Tor 0.3.5 branch will be maintained until Feb 2022: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTor…> and you can see the lifetimes of other Tor versions on that table too. Let us know if we can do anything to make the process easier. And lastly, I am copying the new network health mailing list (which has public archives), to help us stay synced: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkHealthTeam> Thanks, Philipp
