Transparent Proxy

This section lists the operating-system features that can be used to deploy vey-proxy as a transparent proxy.

Linux

On Linux, transparent proxying is typically implemented with netfilter TPROXY. Use it to redirect traffic to vey-proxy while preserving the original destination address.

FreeBSD

On FreeBSD, the equivalent mechanism is the ipfw forward rule.

OpenBSD

On OpenBSD, use the pf divert-to rule.
