DESCRIPTION¶
uAnytun is a tiny implementation of the Secure Anycast Tunneling Protocol (SATP). It provides a complete VPN solution similar to OpenVPN or IPsec in tunnel mode. The main difference is that anycast enables the setup of tunnels between an arbitrary combination of anycast, unicast and multicast hosts. Unlike Anytun which is a full featured implementation uAnytun has no support for multiple connections or synchronisation. It is a small single threaded implementation intended to act as a client on small platforms.OPTIONS¶
uAnytun has been designed as a peer to peer application, so there is no difference between client and server. The following options can be passed to the daemon: -D, --nodaemonizeThis option instructs uAnytun to run in foreground
instead of becoming a daemon which is the default.
-u, --username <username>
run as this user. If no group is specified (-g)
the default group of the user is used. The default is to not drop
privileges.
-g, --groupname <groupname>
run as this group. If no username is specified
(-u) this gets ignored. The default is to not drop privileges.
-C, --chroot <path>
Instruct uAnytun to run in a chroot jail. The
default is to not run in chroot.
-P, --write-pid <filename>
Instruct uAnytun to write it’s pid to this
file. The default is to not create a pid file.
-L, --log
<target>:<level>[,<param1>[,<param2>[..]]]
add log target to logging system. This can be invoked
several times in order to log to different targets at the same time. Every
target has its own log level which is a number between 0 and 5. Where 0 means
disabling log and 5 means debug messages are enabled.
The file target can be used more than once with different levels. If no target
is provided at the command line a single target with the config
syslog:3,uanytun,daemon is added.
The following targets are supported:
syslog
-U, --debug
log to syslog daemon, parameters
<level>[,<logname>[,<facility>]]
file
log to file, parameters
<level>[,<path>]
stdout
log to standard output, parameters <level>
stderr
log to standard error, parameters <level>
This option instructs uAnytun to run in debug
mode. It implicits -D (don’t daemonize) and adds a log target
with the configuration stdout:5 (logging with maximum level). In future
releases there might be additional output when this option is supplied.
-i, --interface <ip address>
This IP address is used as the sender address for
outgoing packets. The default is to not use a special inteface and just bind
on all interfaces.
-p, --port <port>
The local UDP port that is used to send and receive the
payload data. The two tunnel endpoints can use different ports. default:
4444
-r, --remote-host <hostname|ip>
This option can be used to specify the remote tunnel
endpoint. In case of anycast tunnel endpoints, the anycast IP address has to
be used. If you do not specify an address, it is automatically determined
after receiving the first data packet.
-o, --remote-port <port>
The UDP port used for payload data by the remote host
(specified with -p on the remote host). If you do not specify a port, it is
automatically determined after receiving the first data packet.
-4, --ipv4-only
Resolv to IPv4 addresses only. The default is to resolv
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
-6, --ipv6-only
Resolv to IPv6 addresses only. The default is to resolv
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
-d, --dev <name>
device name
By default, tapN is used for Ethernet tunnel interfaces, and tunN for IP
tunnels, respectively. This option can be used to manually override these
defaults.
-t, --type <tun|tap>
device type
Type of the tunnels to create. Use tap for Ethernet tunnels, tun for IP
tunnels.
-n, --ifconfig <local>/<prefix>
The local IP address and prefix length. The remote tunnel
endpoint has to use a different IP address in the same subnet.
<local>
-x, --post-up-script <script>
the local IP address for the tun/tap device
<prefix>
the prefix length of the network
This option instructs uAnytun to run this script
after the interface is created. By default no script will be executed.
-m, --mux <mux-id>
the multiplex id to use. default: 0
-s, --sender-id <sender id>
Each anycast tunnel endpoint needs a unique sender id (1,
2, 3, ...). It is needed to distinguish the senders in case of replay attacks.
As uAnytun does not support synchronisation it can’t be used as
an anycast endpoint therefore this option is quite useless but implemented for
compatibility reasons. default: 0
-w, --window-size <window size>
seqence window size
Sometimes, packets arrive out of order on the receiver side. This option defines
the size of a list of received packets' sequence numbers. If, according to
this list, a received packet has been previously received or has been
transmitted in the past, and is therefore not in the list anymore, this is
interpreted as a replay attack and the packet is dropped. A value of 0
deactivates this list and, as a consequence, the replay protection employed by
filtering packets according to their secuence number. By default the sequence
window is disabled and therefore a window size of 0 is used.
-k, --kd—prf <kd-prf type>
key derivation pseudo random function
The pseudo random function which is used for calculating the session keys and
session salt.
Possible values:
null
-e, --role <role>
no random function, keys and salt are set to 0..00
aes-ctr
AES in counter mode with 128 Bits, default value
aes-ctr-128
AES in counter mode with 128 Bits
aes-ctr-192
AES in counter mode with 192 Bits
aes-ctr-256
AES in counter mode with 256 Bits
SATP uses different session keys for inbound and outbound
traffic. The role parameter is used to determine which keys to use for
outbound or inbound packets. On both sides of a vpn connection different roles
have to be used. Possible values are left and right. You may
also use alice or server as a replacement for left and
bob or client as a replacement for right. By default
left is used.
-E, --passphrase <pass phrase>
This passphrase is used to generate the master key and
master salt. For the master key the last n bits of the SHA256 digest of the
passphrase (where n is the length of the master key in bits) is used. The
master salt gets generated with the SHA1 digest. You may force a specific key
and or salt by using --key and --salt.
-K, --key <master key>
master key to use for key derivation
Master key in hexadecimal notation, e.g. 01a2b3c4d5e6f708a9b0cadbecfd0fa1, with
a mandatory length of 32, 48 or 64 characters (128, 192 or 256 bits).
-A, --salt <master salt>
master salt to use for key derivation
Master salt in hexadecimal notation, e.g. 01a2b3c4d5e6f708a9b0cadbecfd, with a
mandatory length of 28 characters (14 bytes).
-c, --cipher <cipher type>
payload encryption algorithm
Encryption algorithm used for encrypting the payload
Possible values:
null
-a, --auth-algo <algo type>
no encryption
aes-ctr
AES in counter mode with 128 Bits, default value
aes-ctr-128
AES in counter mode with 128 Bits
aes-ctr-192
AES in counter mode with 192 Bits
aes-ctr-256
AES in counter mode with 256 Bits
message authentication algorithm
This option sets the message authentication algorithm.
If HMAC-SHA1 is used, the packet length is increased. The additional bytes
contain the authentication data. see --auth-tag-length for more info.
Possible values:
null
-b, --auth-tag-length <length>
no message authentication
sha1
HMAC-SHA1, default value
The number of bytes to use for the auth tag. This value
defaults to 10 bytes unless the null auth algo is used in which case it
defaults to 0.
EXAMPLES¶
P2P Setup between two unicast enpoints:¶
Host A:
uanytun -r hostb.example.com -t tun -n 192.168.123.1/30 -c aes-ctr-256 -k
aes-ctr-256 -E have_a_very_safe_and_productive_day -e left
uanytun -r hosta.example.com -t tun -n 192.168.123.2/30 -c aes-ctr-256 -k
aes-ctr-256 -E have_a_very_safe_and_productive_day -e right
One unicast and one anycast tunnel endpoint:¶
Unicast tunnel endpoint:
uanytun -r anycast.anytun.org -d anytun0 -t tun -n 192.0.2.2/30 -a null -c null
-w 0 -e client
As uAnytun can’t work as an anycast endpoint it can’t be
used for this purpose. You have to use Anytun for that job.
