The data is served and +fetched on localhost using two TGen (traffic generator) processes, and is +transferred through Tor using Tor client processes and an ephemeral Tor Onion +service. Tor control information and TGen performance statistics are logged to +disk, analyzed once per day to produce a json stats database and files that can +feed into Torperf, and can later be used to visualize changes in Tor client +performance over time. + +Installation +============ +OnionPerf depends on traffic generator TGen.

The binaries can +be obtained by downloading the latest version of Tor browser bundle, or they +can be installed from source. In the example file that follows, directive "ClientTransportPlugin" +needs to point to the path of the binary corresponding to the wanted PT. Finally, both meek and +obfs4 enabled bridges can be obtained from the bridge database. + +Example file torrc1: +:: + + UseBridges 1 + # Example meek bridge line - meek bridge lines can be downloaded from https://bridges.torproject.org + Bridge meek 0.0.2.0:1 url=https://at-b2.erg.abdn.ac.uk + # meek configuration + ClientTransportPlugin meek exec /usr/bin/meek + +Example file torrc2: +:: + + # Example obfs4 bridge - meek bridge lines can be downloaded from bridges.torproject.org + Bridge obfs4 137.50.19.19:5001 AE77C35CAC66C2F207319939029D6D22945BDA84 cert=kwpT6sHRa80CnoSCGzelo2wl4RU7cC+mjBCihj2gAJAnvNyTWD3Pk9Ae05+fGpiGzHleOw iat-mode=0 + # obfs4 configuration + ClientTransportPlugin obfs2,obfs3,obfs4,scramblesuit exec /usr/bin/obfs4proxy + +Then, the configuration files containing the required bridge and PT lines can be passed to the either the Tor server or client: + +:: + + onionperf --measure --torserver-config-file=/path/to/torrc1 --torclient-config-file=/path/to/torrc2 + +In this example, the Onion services uses the obfs4 bridge configured in file torrc2 to connect to the Tor network, while the client uses the meek bridge configured in file torrc1 to connect to the Tor network.
