DTLS

DTLS is a data channel type in GOST. The implementation of DTLS depends on the pion/dtls library.

TLS Certificate Configuration

For TLS configuration, please refer to TLS configuration.

DTLS Service

gost -L dtls://:8443
services:
- name: service-0
  addr: :
  handler:
    type: auto
  listener:
    type: dtls

Proxy

DTLS data channel can be used in combination with various proxy protocols.

HTTP Over DTLS

gost -L http+dtls://:8443
services:
- name: service-0
  addr: :8443
  handler:
    type: http
  listener:
    type: dtls

SOCKS5 Over DTLS

gost -L socks5+dtls://:8443
services:
- name: service-0
  addr: :8443
  handler:
    type: socks5
  listener:
    type: dtls

Relay Over DTLS

gost -L relay+dtls://:8443
services:
- name: service-0
  addr: :8443
  handler:
    type: relay
  listener:
    type: dtls

Port Forwarding

DTLS channels can also be used for port forwarding, which is equivalent to adding TLS encryption on top of the UDP port forwarding service.

Server

gost -L dtls://:8443/:8080 -L http://:8080

is equivalent to

gost -L forward+dtls://:8443/:8080 -L http://:8080
services:
- name: service-0
  addr: :8443
  handler:
    type: forward
  listener:
    type: dtls
  forwarder:
    nodes:
    - name: target-0
      addr: :8080
- name: service-1
  addr: :8080
  handler:
    type: http
  listener:
    type: tcp

By using port forwarding of the DTLS data channel, a DTLS encrypted data channel is added to the HTTP proxy service on port 8080.

At this time, port 8443 is equivalent to:

gost -L http+dtls://:8443
