Fixes #2363 * Rename `relay` package to `firezone-relay` so that binaries outputted match the `firezone-*` cli naming scheme * Rename `firezone-headless-client` package to `firezone-linux-client` for consistency * Add READMEs for user-facing CLI components (there will also be docs later)
relay
This crate houses a minimalistic STUN & TURN server.
Features
We aim to support the following feature set:
- STUN binding requests
- TURN allocate requests
- TURN refresh requests
- TURN channel bind requests
- TURN channel data requests
Relaying of data through other means such as DATA frames is not supported.
Building
You can build the relay using: cargo build --release --bin firezone-relay
You should then find a binary in target/release/firezone-relay.
Running
To run the relay:
firezone-relay --portal_token <portal_token>
where portal_token is the token shown when creating a Relay in the Firezone
admin portal.
For an up-to-date documentation on the available configurations options and a
detailed help text, run cargo run --bin relay -- --help. All command-line
options can be overridden using environment variables. Those variables are
listed in the --help output at the bottom of each command.
Ports
The relay listens on port 3478. This is the standard port for STUN/TURN and
not configurable. Additionally, the relay needs to have access to the port range
49152 - 65535 for the allocations.
Portal Connection
When given a portal_token, the relay will connect to the Firezone portal
(default wss://api.firezone.dev) and wait for an init message before
commencing relay operations.
Design
The relay is designed in a sans-IO fashion, meaning the core components do not cause side effects but operate as pure, synchronous state machines. They take in data and emit commands: wake me at this point in time, send these bytes to this peer, etc.
This allows us to very easily unit-test all kinds of scenarios because all inputs are simple values.
The main server runs in a single task and spawns one additional task for each allocation. Incoming data that needs to be relayed is forwarded to the main task where it gets authenticated and relayed on success.
