Connect to your service without public IP in p2p channel

Meepo

Chinese

Meepo aims to publish network service more easy and decentralized.

This project still in progress

BREAKING CHANGE, v0.6 or higher version are not to keep backward compatible.

Install

Linux

$ sudo snap install meepo

macOS

$ brew install PeerXu/tap/meepo

Windows

Not support chocolatey now, install meepo manually from release.

Quick Start

Setup

Meepo is using ED25519 Algorithm as identity algorithm.

Run meepo serve to start Meepo Service.

$ meepo serve

Run meepo whoami to get MeepoID of Meepo Service.

$ meepo whoami
# OUTPUT:
61pwmvz1lpm038xwku3njzj21h9na71clie4wv9px1kcxfk49z4

Run meepo shutdown to shutdown Meepo Service.

$ meepo shutdown
# OUTPUT:
Meepo shutting down

Cause we start Meepo Service without Identity File, Meepo Service generate a Random Identity to access Meepo Network.

We can use meepo keygen or ssh-keygen to generate Identity File.

NOT support OpenSSH Private Key with passphrase now.

$ meepo keygen -f meepo.pem
# OR
$ ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f meepo.pem

After generated a Identity File, start Meepo Service with Identity File.

$ meepo serve -i meepo.pem

When Meepo Service was started, use meepo whoami to get MeepoID.

$ meepo whoami
# OUTPUT:
63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey

Deploy a service to Meepo Network

alice want to deploy a HelloWorld Service to Meepo Network.

We make a HelloWorld Service now.

# alice:terminal:1
alice$ cat << EOF > index.html
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
EOF
alice$ cat index.html
# OUTPUT:
<h1>Hello World!</h1>

alice$ python3 -m http.server 8080

# alice:terminal:2
alice$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8080
# OUTPUT:
<h1>Hello World!</h1>

Start Meepo Service and get MeepoID.

# alice:terminal:2
alice$ meepo serve
alice: meepo whoami
# OUTPUT:
63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey

Now, we was deployed a HelloWorld Service to Meepo Network.

Access deployed Service though Meepo Network

If bob want to access the HelloWorld Sevice, deployed by alice, bob need to start Meepo Service too.

But if bob do not need to deploy any service to Meepo Network, Random Identity is good enough.

# bob:terminal:1
bob$ meepo serve

Run meepo teleport, to new a Teleportation to connect to the HelloWorld Service was deployed by alice.

# bob:terminal:1
bob$ meepo teleport -n alice:http:8080 -l 127.0.0.1:8080 63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey 127.0.0.1:8080
# Wait a few minutes...
# OUTPUT:
Teleport SUCCESS
Enjoy your teleportation with 127.0.0.1:8080

bob$ meepo teleportation list
# OUTPUT:
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------+--------+--------------------+--------------------+----------+
|      NAME       |                      TRANSPORT                      | PORTAL |       SOURCE       |        SINK        | CHANNELS |
+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------+--------+--------------------+--------------------+----------+

+-----------------+-----------------------------------------------------+--------+--------------------+--------------------+----------+
bob$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8080
# OUTPUT:
<h1>Hello World!</h1>

When bob do not need to access the HelloWorld Service, run meepo teleportation close to close Teleportation.

# bob:terminal:1
bob$ meepo teleportation close alice:http:8080
# OUTPUT:
Teleportation is closing

Principle

TBD

Features

Selfmesh

Selfmesh, a feature to help Meepo Service to connect each other without Default Signaling Server (WebRTC need to exchange signaling when build connections).

Example:

There are three nodes, alice, bob and eve.

alice are built a transport with bob.

eve are built a transport with bob.

When disable selfmash, if alice want to build a transport to eve, it is using Default Signaling Server to exchange signaling.

Exchange path when disable selfmash:

alice --- Default Signaling Server --- eve

When enable selfmash, bob will be a Signaling Server to exchange signaling between alice and eve.

Exchange path when enable selfmash:

alice --- bob(Signaling Server) --- eve

Selfmash feature was enabled in default.

SOCKS5 Proxy

SOCKS5 is a usual proxy protocol.

Meepo allow user to access service, which provided other Meepo Service, through SOCKS5 Proxy.

For example, alice MeepoID is 63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey, and alice was deployed a HelloWorld Service(port 80).

We can enter http://63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey.mpo on browser to access the HelloWorld Service, when setup SOCKS5 Proxy on system and Meepo.

The naming rule of domain is <id>.mpo.

On default parameters, SOCKS5 Proxy listen on 127.0.0.1:12341.

There are alice and bob.

Two services are running on alice, SSH Service(port 22) and HTTP Service(port 80).

On bob, we can access SSH Service and HTTP Service provided by alice through SOCKS5 Proxy.

Example:

1. Access HTTP Service on bob

bob$ curl -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:12341 http://63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey.mpo/
# ...

2. Access SSH Service on bob

bob$ ssh -o ProxyCommand='nc -X 5 -x 127.0.0.1:12341 %h %p' [email protected]

Security

Authorization

In default parameters, create a Teleportation between Meepo Service without authorization.

Everyone can access the service without authorization.

If you do not want anyone can access the service, please setup authorization for Meepo Service.

Example:

There are alice and bob.

alice MeepoID is 63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey.

alice deploy the HTTP Service(port 80) and SSH Service(port 22), and setup authorization with secret, secret is AliceAndBob.

alice$ cat << EOF > meepo.yaml
meepo:
  auth:
    name: secret
    secret: AliceAndBob
EOF

# Shutdown Meepo Service
alice$ meepo shutdown
# ...

# Start Meepo Service with config file
alice$ meepo servce --config meepo.yaml --identity-file meepo.pem

Setup authorization is done.

Now, bob want to access HTTP Service was deployed by alice.

bob need to add secret parameter when Create Teleportation or Teleport.

bob$ meepo teleport -n alice-http-80 -s AliceAndBob -l 127.0.0.1:8080 63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey 127.0.0.1:80
# wait a few minutes
# OUTPUT:
Teleport SUCCESS
Enjoy your teleportation with 127.0.0.1:8080

bob$ meepo teleportation list
# OUTPUT:
+---------------+-----------------------------------------------------+--------+--------------------+------------------+----------+
|     NAME      |                      TRANSPORT                      | PORTAL |       SOURCE       |       SINK       | CHANNELS |
+---------------+-----------------------------------------------------+--------+--------------------+------------------+----------+

+---------------+-----------------------------------------------------+--------+--------------------+------------------+----------+

bob$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/
# ...

Sure, SOCKS Proxy is support with authorization.

bob access HTTP Service was deployed by alice though SOCKS Proxy.

bob$ curl -X socks5h://meepo:[email protected]:12341 http://63eql8p54qpe1jfp1fmuumzge8y6y4ar5uml7nrrf8amqzmutey.mpo

bob access SSH Service was deployed by alice though SOCKS5 Proxy.

bob$ ssh -o ProxyCommand='meepo ncat --proxy-type socks5 --proxy 127.0.0.1:12341 --proxy-auth meepo:AliceAndBob %h %p' [email protected]

Access Control List

Meepo is using ACL to control other Meepo Service to call NewTeleportation.

We can setup ACL on config file.

$ cat meepo.yaml
meepo:
  acl:
    allows:
    - "127.0.0.1:*"
    blocks:
    - "127.0.0.1:22"

This acl configuration means we can create Teleportation on 127.0.0.1 with any port exclude port 22.

ACL configure has two fields, allows and blocks.

allows is a list of AclPolicy, which allow matched challenge to create Teleportation.

blocks is a list of AclPolicy, which not allow matched challenge to create Teleportation.

ACL fllow the rules to run.

1. If challenge triggered block policies, then not allow to create Teleportation.
2. If challenge triggered allow policies, then allow to create Teleportation.
3. Not allow to create Teleportation.

Let's discuss about AclPolicy.

AclPolicy format is source-acl-entity,destination-acl-entity.

In commons, source-acl-entity is ANY implicitly if not presents.

source-acl-entity and destination-acl-entity is AclEntity.

AclEntity format is <meepo-id>:<addr-network>:<addr-host>:<addr-port>.

addr-network support tcp, socks5 and *.

addr-host support IP Address in IPv4, CIDR in IPv4 and *.

addr-port support network ports and *.

Examples:

1. * => *:*:*:*,*:*:*:*

Match all Challenge.

2. 127.0.0.1:22 => *:*:*:*,*:*:127.0.0.1:22

Match Destination.Host is 127.0.0.1, Destination.Port is 22.

3. *:socks5:*:*,* => *:socks5:*:*,*:*:*:*

Match Source.Network is socks5.

4. 192.168.1.0/24:* => *:*:*:*,*:*:192.168.1.0/24:*

Match Destination.Host is 192.168.1.0/24.

Public IP exposed

Hi i tested this app and its amazing but on wireshark remote public IP showing when use transporting

When use p2p is for not showing públic adreess
Its normal ?

Thanks
