You can configure many network clients to use your new Tor IPFire router, but for web traffic we highly recommend the Tor Browser bundle for maximum security (see here). As an example: In the screenshot all traffic will leave the Tor network in Sweden. You may select preferred Tor exit-nodes, either by entering them to the list of exit-nodes you only want to use or by selecting a country, the exit-node must be in. Enter IP addresses or networks one per line. You may define the hosts from your local networks that are allowed to use the Tor SOCKS proxy.

The protocol that is used here is called SOCKS. You may point your web browser or other tools to connect to that port and use the Tor proxy to send data through the Tor network.īe aware, that this is not an HTTP proxy.

The SOCKS port option defines the port your Tor proxy is listening for incoming connections from your local network. In most cases you are done, but in some cases, you may wish to allow or deny access to some hosts on your network or select the country your packets will leave the Tor network. Configuring the Tor clientĮnable the client by checking 'Enable Tor' on the Tor configuration page on the IPFire web interface and hit 'Save'.
