## What is frp?
|
|
|
|
|
|
frp is a fast reverse proxy to help you expose a local server behind a NAT or firewall to the internet. Now, it supports tcp, udp, http and https protocol when requests can be forwarded by domains to backward web services.

|
**We may change any protocol and can't promise backward compatible. Please check the release log when upgrading.**
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
Firstly, download the latest programs from [Release](https://github.com/fatedier/frp/releases) page according to your os and arch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Put **frps** and **frps.ini** to your server with public IP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Put **frpc** and **frpc.ini** to your server in LAN.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Access your computer in LAN by SSH
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Modify frps.ini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
bind_port = 7000
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Start frps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frps -c ./frps.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Modify frpc.ini, `server_addr` is your frps's server IP:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
server_addr = x.x.x.x
|
|
|
server_port = 7000
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ssh]
|
|
|
type = tcp
|
|
|
local_ip = 127.0.0.1
|
|
|
local_port = 22
|
|
|
remote_port = 6000
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Start frpc:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frpc -c ./frpc.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Connect to server in LAN by ssh assuming that username is test:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`ssh -oPort=6000 test@x.x.x.x`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Visit your web service in LAN by custom domains
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sometimes we want to expose a local web service behind a NAT network to others for testing with your own domain name and unfortunately we can't resolve a domain name to a local ip.
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, we can expose a http or https service using frp.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Modify frps.ini, configure http port 8080:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
bind_port = 7000
|
|
|
vhost_http_port = 8080
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Start frps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frps -c ./frps.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Modify frpc.ini and set remote frps server's IP as x.x.x.x. The `local_port` is the port of your web service:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
server_addr = x.x.x.x
|
|
|
server_port = 7000
|
|
|
|
|
|
[web]
|
|
|
type = http
|
|
|
local_port = 80
|
|
|
custom_domains = www.yourdomain.com
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Start frpc:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frpc -c ./frpc.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Resolve A record of `www.yourdomain.com` to IP `x.x.x.x` or CNAME record to your origin domain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Now visit your local web service using url `http://www.yourdomain.com:8080`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Forward DNS query request
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Modify frps.ini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
bind_port = 7000
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Start frps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frps -c ./frps.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Modify frpc.ini, set remote frps's server IP as x.x.x.x, forward dns query request to google dns server `8.8.8.8:53`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
server_addr = x.x.x.x
|
|
|
server_port = 7000
|
|
|
|
|
|
[dns]
|
|
|
type = udp
|
|
|
local_ip = 8.8.8.8
|
|
|
local_port = 53
|
|
|
remote_port = 6000
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Start frpc:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frpc -c ./frpc.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Send dns query request by dig:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`dig @x.x.x.x -p 6000 www.goolge.com`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Forward unix domain socket
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using tcp port to connect unix domain socket like docker daemon.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Modify frps.ini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
bind_port = 7000

server_port = 7000
|
|
|
|
|
|
[unix_domain_socket]
|
|
|
type = tcp
|
|
|
remote_port = 6000
|
|
|
plugin = unix_domain_socket
|
|
|
plugin_unix_path = /var/run/docker.sock
|
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
`curl http://x.x.x.x:6000/version`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Connect website through frpc's network
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configure frps same as above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Modify frpc.ini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
server_addr = x.x.x.x
|
|
|
server_port = 7000
|
|
|
|
|
|
[http_proxy]
|
|
|
type = tcp

|
plugin = http_proxy
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Start frpc:
|
|
|
|
|
|
`./frpc -c ./frpc.ini`
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Set http proxy `x.x.x.x:6000` in your browser and visit website through frpc's network.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Dashboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
Check frp's status and proxies's statistics information by Dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configure a port for dashboard to enable this feature:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
dashboard_port = 7500
|
|
|
# dashboard's username and password are both optional，if not set, default is admin.
|
|
|
dashboard_user = admin
|
|
|
dashboard_pwd = admin
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then visit `http://[server_addr]:7500` to see dashboard, default username and password are both `admin`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Authentication
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since v0.10.0, you only need to set `privilege_token` in frps.ini and frpc.ini.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that time duration between server of frpc and frps mustn't exceed 15 minutes because timestamp is used for authentication.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Howerver, this timeout duration can be modified by setting `authentication_timeout` in frps's configure file. It's defalut value is 900, means 15 minutes. If it is equals 0, then frps will not check authentication timeout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Encryption and Compression
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defalut value is false, you could decide if the proxy will use encryption or compression:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[ssh]
|
|
|
type = tcp
|
|
|
local_port = 22
|
|
|
remote_port = 6000
|
|
|
use_encryption = true
|
|
|
use_compression = true
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Reload configures without frps stopped
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature is removed since v0.10.0.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Privilege Mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
Privilege mode is the default and only mode support in frp since v0.10.0. All proxy configurations are set in client.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Port White List
|
|
|
|
|
|
`privilege_allow_ports` in frps.ini is used for preventing abuse of ports:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
privilege_allow_ports = 2000-3000,3001,3003,4000-50000
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
`privilege_allow_ports` consists of a specific port or a range of ports divided by `,`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### TCP Stream Multiplexing
|
|
|
|
|
|
frp support tcp stream multiplexing since v0.10.0 like HTTP2 Multiplexing. All user requests to same frpc can use only one tcp connection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can disable this feature by modify frps.ini and frpc.ini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini and frpc.ini, must be same
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
tcp_mux = false
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Support KCP Protocol
|
|
|
|
|
|
frp support kcp protocol since v0.12.0.
|
|
|
|
|
|
KCP is a fast and reliable protocol that can achieve the transmission effect of a reduction of the average latency by 30% to 40% and reduction of the maximum delay by a factor of three, at the cost of 10% to 20% more bandwidth wasted than TCP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using kcp in frp:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Enable kcp protocol in frps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
bind_port = 7000
|
|
|
# kcp needs to bind a udp port, it can be same with 'bind_port'
|
|
|
kcp_bind_port = 7000
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Configure the protocol used in frpc to connect frps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
server_addr = x.x.x.x
|
|
|
# specify the 'kcp_bind_port' in frps
|
|
|
server_port = 7000
|
|
|
protocol = kcp
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Connection Pool
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, frps send message to frpc for create a new connection to backward service when getting an user request.If a proxy's connection pool is enabled, there will be a specified number of connections pre-established.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature is fit for a large number of short connections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Configure the limit of pool count each proxy can use in frps.ini:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
max_pool_count = 5
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Enable and specify the number of connection pool:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
pool_count = 1
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Rewriting the Host Header
|
|
|
|
|
|
When forwarding to a local port, frp does not modify the tunneled HTTP requests at all, they are copied to your server byte-for-byte as they are received. Some application servers use the Host header for determining which development site to display. For this reason, frp can rewrite your requests with a modified Host header. Use the `host_header_rewrite` switch to rewrite incoming HTTP requests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[web]
|
|
|
type = http
|
|
|
local_port = 80
|
|
|
custom_domains = test.yourdomain.com
|
|
|
host_header_rewrite = dev.yourdomain.com
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
If `host_header_rewrite` is specified, the Host header will be rewritten to match the hostname portion of the forwarding address.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Password protecting your web service
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anyone who can guess your tunnel URL can access your local web server unless you protect it with a password.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This enforces HTTP Basic Auth on all requests with the username and password you specify in frpc's configure file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It can only be enabled when proxy type is http.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[web]
|
|
|
type = http
|
|
|
local_port = 80
|
|
|
custom_domains = test.yourdomain.com
|
|
|
http_user = abc
|
|
|
http_pwd = abc
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Visit `http://test.yourdomain.com` and now you need to input username and password.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Custom subdomain names
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is convenient to use `subdomain` configure for http、https type when many people use one frps server together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frps.ini
|
|
|
subdomain_host = frps.com
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Resolve `*.frps.com` to the frps server's IP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[web]
|
|
|
type = http
|
|
|
local_port = 80
|
|
|
subdomain = test
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you can visit your web service by host `test.frps.com`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that if `subdomain_host` is not empty, `custom_domains` should not be the subdomain of `subdomain_host`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### URL routing
|
|
|
|
|
|
frp support forward http requests to different backward web services by url routing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
`locations` specify the prefix of URL used for routing. frps first searches for the most specific prefix location given by literal strings regardless of the listed order.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[web01]
|
|
|
type = http
|
|
|
local_port = 80
|
|
|
custom_domains = web.yourdomain.com
|
|
|
locations = /
|
|
|
|
|
|
[web02]
|
|
|
type = http
|
|
|
local_port = 81
|
|
|
custom_domains = web.yourdomain.com
|
|
|
locations = /news,/about
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
Http requests with url prefix `/news` and `/about` will be forwarded to **web02** and others to **web01**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Connect frps by HTTP PROXY
|
|
|
|
|
|
frpc can connect frps using HTTP PROXY if you set os environment `HTTP_PROXY` or configure `http_proxy` param in frpc.ini file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It only works when protocol is tcp.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[common]
|
|
|
server_addr = x.x.x.x
|
|
|
server_port = 7000
|
|
|
http_proxy = http://user:pwd@192.168.1.128:8080
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Plugin
|
|
|
|
|
|
frpc only forward request to local tcp or udp port by default.
|
|
|
|

Plugin is used for providing rich features. There are built-in plugins such as **unix_domain_socket**, **http_proxy** and you can see [example usage](#example-usage).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specify which plugin to use by `plugin` parameter. Configuration parameters of plugin should be started with `plugin_`. `local_ip` and `local_port` is useless for plugin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using plugin **http_proxy**:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
# frpc.ini
|
|
|
[http_proxy]
|
|
|
type = tcp
|
|
|
remote_port = 6000
|
|
|
plugin = http_proxy
|
|
|
plugin_http_user = abc
|
|
|
plugin_http_passwd = abc
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
`plugin_http_user` and `plugin_http_passwd` are configuration parameters used in `http_proxy` plugin.

## Development Plan
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Log http request information in frps.
|
|
|
* Direct reverse proxy, like haproxy.
|
|
|
* Load balance to different service in frpc.
|
|
|
* Frpc can directly be a webserver for static files.
|
|
|
* P2p communicate by make udp hole to penetrate NAT.
|
|
|
* kubernetes ingress support.
