This project is a multi-protocol proxy server and network tunneling tool designed to manage traffic across heterogeneous infrastructure. It functions as a traffic management gateway, providing the core infrastructure to route, filter, and secure network connections through a unified interface.
The software distinguishes itself through its support for cascading proxy chaining and dynamic upstream load balancing, which allow for the creation of complex, multi-hop network paths. It provides granular control over traffic flow by normalizing diverse protocols, enabling transparent port forwarding, and facilitating intranet penetration through multiplexed, secure tunnels.
The platform includes a broad suite of capabilities for infrastructure management, including independent DNS resolution, traffic compression, and layered encryption transport. It enforces security and compliance through access control lists, proxy authentication, and bandwidth throttling. Operational settings are managed via command-line arguments, which also support background process lifecycle management to ensure continuous service availability.
