Redsocks is a proxy tunneling extension. However, I found a very rare tutorial about how to configure Redsocks on an OpenWRT router. With this tutorial, we can use it on our OpenWRT router easily. It will be helpful for BDIX bypass users of Bangladesh who are using the socks5 proxy.

redsocks-openwrt's Issues

My configuration scenario

Hi!

I have OpenWRT 19-something version on tp-link router.
I needed to create transparent proxy (so everyone who connects to this router by default uses proxy and won't be blocked by local firewall).

Here is my scenario:

• configure ssh and, over, ssh:
• opkg update
• opkg install iptables iptables-mod-nat-extra redsocks ca-bundle ca-certificates libustream-openssl20150806 nano
• service redsocks stop && mv /etc/redsocks.conf /etc/redsocks.conf.bkp && cd /etc && wget https://github.com/emonbhuiyan/Redsocks-OpenWRT/raw/main/redsocks.conf && mv /etc/init.d/redsocks /etc/init.d/redsocks.bkp && cd /etc/init.d && wget https://github.com/emonbhuiyan/Redsocks-OpenWRT/raw/main/redsocks && chmod +x /etc/init.d/redsocks
• nano /etc/redsocks.conf

base {
        log_debug = off;
        log_info = on;
        log = "syslog:local7";
        daemon = on;
        redirector = iptables;
}

redsocks {
        local_ip = 0.0.0.0;
        local_port = 1337;
        ip = YOUR_SOCKS5_PROXY_IP;		// <---------
        port = YOUR_SOCKS5_PROXY_PORT;		// <---------
        type = socks5;
        //login = "username";
        //password = "password";
}

• service redsocks enable

• service redsocks start

• service redsocks reload

• in http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/system/startup (Local startup) add before 'exit 0'

service redsocks restart
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -i br-lan -p tcp --syn -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -i br-lan -p tcp --syn -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 10.44.127.0/24 -i br-lan -p tcp --syn -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i br-lan -p tcp --syn -j REDIRECT --to-ports 1337

Maybe someone will make use of it.
