Overview + + This proposal aims to extend the .onion naming scheme for Hidden + Service addresses with sub-domain components, which will be ignored + by the Tor layer but will appear in HTTP Host headers, allowing + subdomain-based virtual hosting. + +2. Motivation + + Sites doing large-scale HTTP virtual hosting on subdomains currently + do not have a good option for exposure via Hidden Services, short of + creating a separate HS for every subdomain (which in some cases is + simply not possible due to the subdomains not being fully known + beforehand). + +3. Implementation + + Tor should ignore any subdomain components besides the Hidden + Service key, i.e. "foo.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion" should be treated + simply as "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion". + +
