<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p><em>tor</em> is a connection-oriented anonymizing communication
service. Users choose a source-routed path through a set of nodes, and
negotiate a "virtual circuit" through the network, in which each node
knows its predecessor and successor, but no others. Traffic flowing down
the circuit is unwrapped by a symmetric key at each node, which reveals

<strong>ConstrainedSockets</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>

<p>
    If set, Tor will tell the kernel to attempt to shrink the buffers for all
    sockets to the size specified in <strong>ConstrainedSockSize</strong>. This is useful for
    virtual servers and other environments where system level TCP buffers may
    be limited. If you&#8217;re on a virtual server, and you encounter the "Error
    creating network socket: No buffer space available" message, you are
    likely experiencing this problem.<br />
<br />
    The preferred solution is to have the admin increase the buffer pool for
    the host itself via /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_mem or equivalent facility;
    this configuration option is a second-resort.<br />
<br />
    The DirPort option should also not be used if TCP buffers are scarce. The
    cached directory requests consume additional sockets which exacerbates
    the problem.<br />
<br />
    You should <strong>not</strong> enable this feature unless you encounter the "no buffer
    space available" issue. Reducing the TCP buffers affects window size for
    the TCP stream and will reduce throughput in proportion to round trip
    time on long paths. (Default: 0.)

    method is sufficient to authenticate to Tor.) This
    option is required for many Tor controllers; most use the value of 9051.

</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    Use a nonstandard authoritative directory server at the provided address
    and port, with the specified key fingerprint. This option can be repeated
    many times, for multiple authoritative directory servers. Flags are
    separated by spaces, and determine what kind of an authority this directory
    is. By default, every authority is authoritative for current ("v2")-style
    directories, unless the "no-v2" flag is given. If the "v1" flags is
    provided, Tor will use this server as an authority for old-style (v1)
    directories as well. (Only directory mirrors care about this.) Tor will
    use this server as an authority for hidden service information if the "hs"
    flag is set, or if the "v1" flag is set and the "no-hs" flag is <strong>not</strong> set.
    Tor will use this authority as a bridge authoritative directory if the
    "bridge" flag is set. If a flag "orport=<strong>port</strong>" is given, Tor will use the
    given port when opening encrypted tunnels to the dirserver. Lastly, if a
    flag "v3ident=<strong>fp</strong>" is given, the dirserver is a v3 directory authority
    whose v3 long-term signing key has the fingerprint <strong>fp</strong>.<br />
<br />
    If no <strong>dirserver</strong> line is given, Tor will use the default directory
    servers. NOTE: this option is intended for setting up a private Tor

    By default, this option is treated as a preference that Tor is allowed

    For example, if you try to connect to a hidden service,
    but you have excluded all of the hidden service&#8217;s introduction points,
    Tor will connect to one of them anyway.  If you do not want this
    behavior, set the StrictNodes option (documented below). <br />
<br />
    Note also that if you are a relay, this (and the other node selection
    options below) only affects your own circuits that Tor builds for you.

    A list of identity fingerprints, nicknames, country codes and address

    node that delivers traffic for you outside the Tor network.<br />
<br />
    Note that if you list too few nodes here, or if you exclude too many exit
    nodes with ExcludeExitNodes, you can degrade functionality.  For example,
    if none of the exits you list allows traffic on port 80 or 443, you won&#8217;t
    be able to browse the web.<br />
<br />
    Note also that not every circuit is used to deliver traffic outside of
    the Tor network.  It is normal to see non-exit circuits (such as those
    used to connect to hidden services, those that do directory fetches,
    those used for relay reachability self-tests, and so on) that end
    at a non-exit node.  To
    keep a node from being used entirely, see ExcludeNodes and StrictNodes.<br />
<br />
    The ExcludeNodes option overrides this option: any node listed in both

    option overrides this option; if you have configured bridges and

    If StrictNodes is set to 1, Tor will treat the ExcludeNodes option as a

    will break functionality for you.  If StrictNodes is set to 0, Tor will
    still try to avoid nodes in the ExcludeNodes list, but it will err on the
    side of avoiding unexpected errors.  Specifically, StrictNodes 0 tells
    Tor that it is okay to use an excluded node when it is <strong>necessary</strong> to

    Like <strong>ReachableAddresses</strong>, a list of addresses and ports. Tor will obey
    these restrictions when fetching directory information, using standard HTTP

    <strong>HTTPSProxy</strong> is set then these connections will go through that proxy.<br />
<br />
    The separation between <strong>ReachableORAddresses</strong> and
    <strong>ReachableDirAddresses</strong> is only interesting when you are connecting
    through proxies (see <strong>HTTPProxy</strong> and <strong>HTTPSProxy</strong>). Most proxies limit
    TLS connections (which Tor uses to connect to Onion Routers) to port 443,

    A list of ports for services that tend to have long-running connections
    (e.g. chat and interactive shells). Circuits for streams that use these
    ports will contain only high-uptime nodes, to reduce the chance that a node
    will go down before the stream is finished. (Default: 21, 22, 706, 1863,

<p>
    For each value in the comma separated list, Tor will track recent

    exit node for each. If the value is prepended with a '.', it is treated as
    matching an entire domain. If one of the values is just a '.', it means
    match everything. This option is useful if you frequently connect to sites
    that will expire all your authentication cookies (i.e. log you out) if
    your IP address changes. Note that this option does have the disadvantage
    of making it more clear that a given history is associated with a single
    user. However, most people who would wish to observe this will observe it
    through cookies or other protocol-specific means anyhow.
</p>

<p>
    If this option is set to 1, we pick a few long-term entry servers, and try

<p>
    When this option is enabled, Tor will reject application connections that
    use unsafe variants of the socks protocol&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;ones that only provide an IP
    address, meaning the application is doing a DNS resolve first.
    Specifically, these are socks4 and socks5 when not doing remote DNS.

</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>TestSocks</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>

<p>
    When this option is enabled, Tor will make a notice-level log entry for
    each connection to the Socks port indicating whether the request used a
    safe socks protocol or an unsafe one (see above entry on SafeSocks). This
    helps to determine whether an application using Tor is possibly leaking
    DNS requests. (Default: 0)

<p>
    When this option is enabled, Tor will warn whenever a request is

<dd>
<p>
    When Tor needs to assign a virtual (unused) address because of a MAPADDRESS

    picks an unassigned address from this range. (Default:
    127.192.0.0/10)<br />
<br />
    When providing proxy server service to a network of computers using a tool
    like dns-proxy-tor, change this address to "10.192.0.0/10" or
    "172.16.0.0/12". The default <strong>VirtualAddrNetwork</strong> address range on a
    properly configured machine will route to the loopback interface. For
    local use, no change to the default VirtualAddrNetwork setting is needed.

</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>AllowNonRFC953Hostnames</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    When this option is disabled, Tor blocks hostnames containing illegal

    When this option is disabled, Tor uses the public key step for the first

    already used TLS to authenticate the relay and to establish forward-secure
    keys. Turning this option off makes circuit building slower.<br />
<br />
    Note that Tor will always use the public key step for the first hop if it&#8217;s

<strong>Address</strong> <em>address</em>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    The IP address or fully qualified domain name of this server (e.g.
    moria.mit.edu). You can leave this unset, and Tor will guess your IP
    address.  This IP address is the one used to tell clients and other
    servers where to find your Tor server; it doesn&#8217;t affect the IP that your
    Tor client binds to.  To bind to a different address, use the
    *ListenAddress and OutboundBindAddress options.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>AllowSingleHopExits</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    This option controls whether clients can use this server as a single hop
    proxy. If set to 1, clients can use this server as an exit even if it is
    the only hop in the circuit.  Note that most clients will refuse to use
    servers that set this option, since most clients have
    ExcludeSingleHopRelays set.  (Default: 0)
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>AssumeReachable</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    This option is used when bootstrapping a new Tor network. If set to 1,
    don&#8217;t do self-reachability testing; just upload your server descriptor
    immediately. If <strong>AuthoritativeDirectory</strong> is also set, this option
    instructs the dirserver to bypass remote reachability testing too and list
    all connected servers as running.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>BridgeRelay</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    Sets the relay to act as a "bridge" with respect to relaying connections
    from bridge users to the Tor network. It mainly causes Tor to publish a
    server descriptor to the bridge database, rather than publishing a relay
    descriptor to the public directory authorities.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>ContactInfo</strong> <em>email_address</em>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    Administrative contact information for server. This line might get picked

    email address.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>ExitPolicy</strong> <em>policy</em>,<em>policy</em>,<em>&#8230;</em>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
    Set an exit policy for this server. Each policy is of the form
    "<strong>accept</strong>|<strong>reject</strong> <em>ADDR</em>[/<em>MASK</em>][:<em>PORT</em>]". If /<em>MASK</em> is
    omitted then this policy just applies to the host given. Instead of giving
    a host or network you can also use "*" to denote the universe (0.0.0.0/0).
    <em>PORT</em> can be a single port number, an interval of ports
    "<em>FROM_PORT</em>-<em>TO_PORT</em>", or "*". If <em>PORT</em> is omitted, that means
    "*".<br />
<br />
    For example, "accept 18.7.22.69:*,reject 18.0.0.0/8:*,accept *:*" would
    reject any traffic destined for MIT except for web.mit.edu, and accept
    anything else.<br />
<br />
    To specify all internal and link-local networks (including 0.0.0.0/8,
    169.254.0.0/16,    127.0.0.0/8,    192.168.0.0/16, 10.0.0.0/8, and
    172.16.0.0/12), you can use the "private" alias instead of an address.
    These addresses are rejected by default (at the beginning of your exit
    policy), along with your public IP address, unless you set the
    ExitPolicyRejectPrivate config option to 0. For example, once you&#8217;ve done
    that, you could allow HTTP to 127.0.0.1 and block all other connections to
    internal networks with "accept 127.0.0.1:80,reject private:*", though that
    may also allow connections to your own computer that are addressed to its
    public (external) IP address. See RFC 1918 and RFC 3330 for more details
    about internal and reserved IP address space.<br />
<br />
    This directive can be specified multiple times so you don&#8217;t have to put it
    all on one line.<br />
<br />
    Policies are considered first to last, and the first match wins. If you
    want to _replace_ the default exit policy, end your exit policy with
    either a reject *:* or an accept *:*. Otherwise, you&#8217;re _augmenting_
    (prepending to) the default exit policy. The default exit policy is:<br />

<p>
    This option specifies which descriptors Tor will publish when acting as
    a relay. You can
    choose multiple arguments, separated by commas.
<br />
    If this option is set to 0, Tor will not publish its
    descriptors to any directories. (This is useful if you&#8217;re testing
    out your server, or if you&#8217;re using a Tor controller that handles directory
    publishing for you.) Otherwise, Tor will publish its descriptors of all
    type(s) specified. The default is "1",

<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>AccountingMax</strong> <em>N</em> <strong>bytes</strong>|<strong>KB</strong>|<strong>MB</strong>|<strong>GB</strong>|<strong>TB</strong>

<dd>
<p>
    Never send more than the specified number of bytes in a given accounting
    period, or receive more than that number in the period. For example, with
    AccountingMax set to 1 GB, a server could send 900 MB and receive 800 MB
    and continue running. It will only hibernate once one of the two reaches 1
    GB. When the number of bytes gets low, Tor will stop accepting new
    connections and circuits.  When the number of bytes
    is exhausted, Tor will hibernate until some
    time in the next accounting period. To prevent all servers from waking at
    the same time, Tor will also wait until a random point in each period
    before waking up. If you have bandwidth cost issues, enabling hibernation
    is preferable to setting a low bandwidth, since it provides users with a
    collection of fast servers that are up some of the time, which is more
    useful than a set of slow servers that are always "available".

    accounting period runs from the time <em>HH:MM</em> on the <em>dayth</em> day of one
    month to the same day and time of the next. (The day must be between 1 and
    28.) If <strong>week</strong> is given, each accounting period runs from the time <em>HH:MM</em>
    of the <em>dayth</em> day of one week to the same day and time of the next week,
    with Monday as day 1 and Sunday as day 7. If <strong>day</strong> is given, each

    If set to 1, then we will search for addresses in the local search domain.
    For example, if this system is configured to believe it is in
    "example.com", and a client tries to connect to "www", the client will be
    connected to "www.example.com". This option only affects name lookups that

<dd>
<p>
    When this option is disabled, Tor does not try to resolve hostnames
    containing illegal characters (like @ and :) rather than sending them to an

<dt class="hdlist1">
<strong>ServerDNSRandomizeCase</strong> <strong>0</strong>|<strong>1</strong>

<p>
    When this option is set, Tor sets the case of each character randomly in
    outgoing DNS requests, and makes sure that the case matches in DNS replies.
    This so-called "0x20 hack" helps resist some types of DNS poisoning attack.
    For more information, see "Increased DNS Forgery Resistance through
