TOR VPN

[clvk07]

Hi

I was wondering what traffic gets redirected to the TOR VPN. For example if I use an address such as HTTP://server.x:9000 if the traffic goes trough TOR, does it hide your real IP address?
Or does it hide just port 80?

thanks

It only proxies 53 (DNS), 80 and 443.

Depending on what you're trying to do, it's possible to configure TOR on the router as a transparent proxy by adding some firewall rules and enabling some torrc options. Then you can selectively route specific hosts through the TOR network.

The best it can do is route UDP port 53 (DNS) and all TCP traffic, but it cannot route your other UDP traffic as this could compromise your anonymity.
