NAME

       shadowsocks-libev - a lightweight and secure socks5 proxy

SYNOPSIS

       ss-local|ss-redir|ss-server|ss-tunnel|ss-manager [-s <server_host>] [-p <server_port>] [-l
       <local_port>] [-k <password>] [-m <encrypt_method>] [-f <pid_file>] [-t <timeout>] [-c
       <config_file>]

DESCRIPTION

       Shadowsocks-libev is a lightweight and secure socks5 proxy. It is a port of the original
       shadowsocks created by clowwindy. Shadowsocks-libev is written in pure C and takes
       advantage of libev to achieve both high performance and low resource consumption.

       Shadowsocks-libev consists of five components. One is ss-server(1) that runs on a remote
       server to provide secured tunnel service. ss-local(1) and ss-redir(1) are clients on your
       local machines to proxy traffic(TCP/UDP or both). ss-tunnel(1) is a tool for local port
       forwarding.

       While ss-local(1) works as a standard socks5 proxy, ss-redir(1) works as a transparent
       proxy and requires netfilter’s NAT module. For more information, check out the EXAMPLE
       section.

       ss-manager(1) is a controller for multi-user management and traffic statistics, using UNIX
       domain socket to talk with ss-server(1). Also, it provides a UNIX domain socket or IP
       based API for other software. About the details of this API, please refer to the PROTOCOL
       section.

OPTIONS

       -s <server_host>
           Set the server’s hostname or IP.

       -l <local_port>
           Set the local port number.

           Not available in server nor manager mode.

       -k <password>, --password <password>
           Set the password. The server and the client should use the same password.

       --key <key_in_base64>
           Set the key directly. The key should be encoded with URL-safe Base64.

           Not available in manager mode.

       -m <encrypt_method>
           Set the cipher.

           Shadowsocks-libev accepts 19 different ciphers:

           aes-128-gcm, aes-192-gcm, aes-256-gcm, rc4-md5, aes-128-cfb, aes-192-cfb, aes-256-cfb,
           aes-128-ctr, aes-192-ctr, aes-256-ctr, bf-cfb, camellia-128-cfb, camellia-192-cfb,
           camellia-256-cfb, chacha20-ietf-poly1305, xchacha20-ietf-poly1305, salsa20, chacha20
           and chacha20-ietf.

           The default cipher is chacha20-ietf-poly1305.

           If built with PolarSSL or custom OpenSSL libraries, some of these ciphers may not
           work.

       -a <user_name>
           Run as a specific user.

       -f <pid_file>
           Start shadowsocks as a daemon with specific pid file.

       -t <timeout>
           Set the socket timeout in seconds. The default value is 60.

       -c <config_file>
           Use a configuration file.

       -n <number>
           Specify max number of open files.

           Not available in manager mode.

           Only available on Linux.

       -i <interface>
           Send traffic through specific network interface.

           For example, there are three interfaces in your device, which is lo (127.0.0.1), eth0
           (192.168.0.1) and eth1 (192.168.0.2). Meanwhile, you configure shadowsocks-libev to
           listen on 0.0.0.0:8388 and bind to eth1. That results the traffic go out through eth1,
           but not lo nor eth0. This option is useful to control traffic in multi-interface
           environment.

           Not available in redir mode.

       -b <local_address>
           Specify the local address to bind.

           For servers: Specify the local address to use while this server is making outbound
           connections to remote servers on behalf of the clients.

           For clients: Specify the local address to use while this client is making outbound
           connections to the server.

           Not available in manager mode.

       -u
           Enable UDP relay.

           TPROXY is required in redir mode. You may need root permission.

       -U
           Enable UDP relay and disable TCP relay.

           Not available in local mode.

       -T
           Use tproxy instead of redirect (for tcp).

           Only available in redir mode.

       -L <addr:port>
           Specify destination server address and port for local port forwarding.

           Only available in tunnel mode.

       -d <addr>
           Setup name servers for internal DNS resolver (libc-ares). The default server is
           fetched from /etc/resolv.conf.

           Only available in server and manager mode.

       --fast-open
           Enable TCP fast open.

           Not available in redir nor tunnel mode, with Linux kernel > 3.7.0.

       --reuse-port
           Enable port reuse.

           Only available with Linux kernel > 3.9.0.

       --no-delay
           Enable TCP_NODELAY.

       --acl <acl_config>
           Enable ACL (Access Control List) and specify config file.

           Not available in redir nor tunnel mode.

       --manager-address <path_to_unix_domain>
           Specify UNIX domain socket address.

           Only available in server and manager mode.

       --executable <path_to_server_executable>
           Specify the executable path of ss-server.

           Only available in manager mode.

       -v
           Enable verbose mode.

       -h|--help
           Print help message.

EXAMPLE

       ss-redir requires netfilter’s NAT function. Here is an example:

           # Create new chain
           iptables -t nat -N SHADOWSOCKS
           iptables -t mangle -N SHADOWSOCKS

           # Ignore your shadowsocks server's addresses
           # It's very IMPORTANT, just be careful.
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 123.123.123.123 -j RETURN

           # Ignore LANs and any other addresses you'd like to bypass the proxy
           # See Wikipedia and RFC5735 for full list of reserved networks.
           # See ashi009/bestroutetb for a highly optimized CHN route list.
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 0.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 10.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 169.254.0.0/16 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 172.16.0.0/12 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 192.168.0.0/16 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 224.0.0.0/4 -j RETURN
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 240.0.0.0/4 -j RETURN

           # Anything else should be redirected to shadowsocks's local port
           iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 12345

           # Add any UDP rules
           ip rule add fwmark 0x01/0x01 table 100
           ip route add local 0.0.0.0/0 dev lo table 100
           iptables -t mangle -A SHADOWSOCKS -p udp --dport 53 -j TPROXY --on-port 12345 --tproxy-mark 0x01/0x01

           # Apply the rules
           iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -j SHADOWSOCKS
           iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j SHADOWSOCKS

           # Start the shadowsocks-redir
           ss-redir -u -c /etc/config/shadowsocks.json -f /var/run/shadowsocks.pid

PROTOCOL

       ss-manager(1) provides several APIs through UDP protocol

           Send UDP commands in the following format to the manager-address provided to
           ss-manager(1):
               command: [JSON data]

           To add a port:
               add: {"server_port": 8001, "password":"7cd308cc059"}

           To remove a port:
               remove: {"server_port": 8001}

           To receive a pong:
               ping

           Then ss-manager(1) will send back the traffic statistics:
               stat: {"8001":11370}
