Re: [tor-dev] Proposal 188: Bridge Guards and other anti-enumeration defenses

...

I would be pleased to use my *dsl/cable home-router with fixed-IP address to do a port-mapping to a known and stable tor-relay.

Being able to "setup a bridge" by simply:

• opening a port-forward on my router
• submitting it to a web-interface

would be a very cool way to open-up opportunities of hundreds or thousands of different IP:PORT pair (basically a bridge) without having to run dedicated software on an always on-server (replaced by a simple home-router, that's "the always-on server").

Sounds great. Can somebody boil down the required iptables rules to something really simple and foolproof?

Did this as an experiment, wrote an article about it:
