Proposal: support for front proxy in mieru client

Open Anvor-coll opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

I would like to propose the addition of front proxy support to the Mieru client, specifically an HTTP proxy. Because I would prefer to avoid connecting directly to Mita server.

The traffic between mieru and mita is already encrypted, what is the benefit you want to get by adding another proxy in this path?

By using a front proxy, the client’s real IP address can be hidden. It can also be used to bypass local gateway in some networks with strict traffic monitoring. For example, if a gateway blocks certain computers from accessing the internet or censors traffic, but allows mobile traffic, connecting to Mita server via a mobile device's HTTP proxy can bypass these restrictions.

The client IP is hidden as long as a proxy is used, not necessarily a front proxy.

mieru is designed to pass GFW. In your case, I suggest using another tool like singbox to pass the local network, then connect to mieru to across the GFW.
