[tor-relays] ymkeo changing ISP coming Thursday
Hi, I'm in the process of switching ISPs and if all goes well this should be complete by coming Thursday. So my relay (ymkeo, 4E8CE6F5651E7342C1E7E5ED031E82078134FB0D) will change its external IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. It is listed as a fallback directory mirror but currently not acting as one, so someone will have to update that list :) New IPv4: 185.238.129.9 /32 New IPv6: 2a10:3781:116:: /48 Regards, René ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
Re: [tor-relays] Consensus weight/Advertised bandwidth low on "Gigabit" ISP, despite ISP equipment upgrades
It can take up to 6 months in my experience until a relay is fully utilized, and some just never never reach peak bandwidth throughput for whatever reason. 2020-06-13 5:51 GMT, Neel Chauhan : > Hi tor-relays@, > > I run a FreeBSD-based Tor relay across two instances on "Wave G", a > Gigabit ISP in the Seattle metro.

There is a mysterious alternative Tor client out there, which is programmed to do uncompressed directory fetches just from the directory authorities. It easily overloads directory authorities if they don't use the defenses we put in for it over the past few months: https://bugs.torproject.org/33018 This alternate set of Tor clients recently came back, and you can see its impact in e.g. the bandwidth graph for gabelmoo: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/F2044413DAC2E02E3D6BCF4735A19BCA1DE97281 Now, fortunately, it doesn't ask for directory information in the same way as any of the Tors that we've ever built, so the fix in #33018 was to keep answering the Tors that we built, while declining to answer these other requests when we're low on bandwidth. But even still, some of the directory authorities are having trouble under the load, and the resulting desynchronization means that not every directory authority succeeds at participating in every consensus round. That's probably what you're seeing with the inconsistencies on https://consensus-health.torproject.org/ If somebody knows some details of what these other Tor clients actually are, that would be really helpful to know! --Roger ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
