1 | # Setting up per-user IP addresses
|
---|
2 |
|
---|
3 | If your bouncer hosts many users, you may want to assign a unique IP address for
|
---|
4 | each user. This allows upstream networks to easily ban a single user when a
|
---|
5 | misbehavior is detected, instead of banning the whole bouncer.
|
---|
6 |
|
---|
7 | Assuming you're running Linux and want to use the IPv6 prefix `2001:db8::/32`:
|
---|
8 |
|
---|
9 | 1. Setup the router to redirect ingress packets with one of these IP addresses
|
---|
10 | as the destination to your bouncer.
|
---|
11 | 2. Enable `net.ipv6.ip_nonlocal_bind=1` with `sysctl`.
|
---|
12 | 3. Setup a local route for this prefix:
|
---|
13 | `ip route add local 2001:db8::/56 dev lo`
|
---|
14 | 4. Check network connectivity:
|
---|
15 | `curl -6 --interface 2001:db8::42 https://emersion.fr`
|
---|
16 | 5. Configure soju to use this IP range: `upstream-user-ip 2001:db8::/32`
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | The address `2001:db8::1` will be left unused. Users will be assigned IP
|
---|
19 | addresses starting from `2001:db8::2`.
|
---|
20 |
|
---|
21 | The IRC `/whois` command can be used to double-check that the expected IPv6
|
---|
22 | addresses are being used.
