Topology

+ +

Nodes with tor service will run a Tor exit or hidden service, depending on what other service it is paired with:

+ +
    +
  • tor + openvpn: when combined with openvpn nodes, tor will create a Tor exit node to provide extra cover traffic for the VPN. This can be especially useful if there are VPN gateways without much traffic.
    • +
  • tor + webapp: when combined with a webapp node, the tor service will make the webapp and the API available via .onion hidden service.
    • +
  • tor stand alone: a regular Tor exit node.
    • +
+ + +

If activated, you can list the hidden service .onion addresses this way:

+ +

leap ls –print tor.hidden_service.address tor

+ +

Then just add ‘.onion’ to the end of the printed addresses.

+ +

Configuration

+ +
    +
  • tor.bandwidth_rate: the max bandwidth allocated to Tor, in KB per second, when used as an exit node.
    • +
+ + +

For example:

+ +
{
+  "tor": {
+    "bandwidth_rate": 6550
+  }
+}
+
+ +
+
+ + -- cgit v1.2.3
