[tor-relays] How To Add Reachable Ports To OBFS4 Bridge

[Keifer Bly]

Hi all,

 

So I am looking to add some reachable ports to my OBFS4 bridge at
https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/148BD64BED9F2C27637D986DE032E
CF14E5B9E9A 

 

As this list is public, I guess I should not provide the port numbers that
tor and obfs4 are running on. However, would adding reachable ports like 80,
443, 8080 be doable?

 

I know that these ports that might not bind very well as lots of other types
of traffic use them, however I saw the ticket at

 

https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7875

 

And this raises a concern about bridges being reachable for users who are
connecting from behind firewalls, etc (hence the reason why they need to use
a bridge), it seems like a good idea to have bridges reachable on ports that
aren't likely to be blocked by network administrators or ISPS.

 

Let me know what you think.
