# ptw

Pooling TLS Wrapper

Accepts TCP connections on listen port and forwards them, wrapped in TLS, to destination port. `ptw` maintains pool of fresh established TLS connections effectively cancelling delay caused by TLS handshake.

ptw may serve as drop-in replacement for stunnel or haproxy for purpose of secure tunneling of TCP connections. Thus, it is intended for use with stunnel or haproxy on server side, accepting TLS connections and forwarding them, for example, to SOCKS proxy. In such configuration make sure your server timeouts long enough to allow fit lifetime of idle client TLS sessions (`-T` option).

`ptw` can be used with custom CAs and/or mutual TLS auth with certificates.

## Requirements

* Python 3.5.3+

## Installation

```
pip3 install ptw
```

## Usage

See [quickcerts](https://pypi.org/project/quickcerts/) for easy TLS certificate generator.

#### Wrapper for SOCKS/HTTP proxy

```
ptw -c mycert.pem -k mykey.pem -C ca.pem -n 50 -T 300 example.com 1443
```

Corresponding haproxy configuration on server:

```
...

defaults
    log       global
    mode      tcp
    option    tcplog
    option    dontlognull
    timeout connect 5000
    timeout check   5000
    timeout client  600000
    timeout server  600000
    timeout tunnel  600000

frontend socks-proxy
    bind *:1443 ssl crt /etc/haproxy/server.combined.pem ca-file /etc/haproxy/ca.pem verify required
    default_backend socks-proxy

backend socks-proxy
    server localsocks 127.0.0.1:1080

```

This command will accept TCP connections on port 57800, wrap them in TLS and forward them to port 1443 of example.com host, maintaining pool of at least 50 TLS connections no older than 300 seconds. For client TLS authentication see also `-c` and `-k` options.

#### Transparent proxy for TCP connections

Run on your router:

```
pts -a 0.0.0.0 -c mycert.pem -k mykey.pem -C ca.pem -n 50 -T 300 -P v1 example.com 2443
```

Add following rule to iptables:

```sh
iptables -I PREROUTING 1 -t nat -p tcp -s 192.168.0.0/16 '!' -d 192.168.0.0/16 -j REDIRECT --to 57800
```

Assuming your local network is covered by prefix `192.168.0.0/16`.

Corresponding haproxy config sections:

```
frontend tls-wrapper
    bind *:2443 ssl crt /etc/haproxy/server.combined.pem ca-file /etc/haproxy/ca.pem verify required
    default_backend strip-proxy

backend strip-proxy
    server strip-proxy 127.0.0.1:41718

frontend strip-proxy
    bind 127.0.0.1:41718 accept-proxy
    default_backend passthrough

backend passthrough
    server direct *
```

This setup will redirect all TCP connections in your network.
