rlproxy

Description

rlproxy is a small TCP proxy with rate limiting capability. It uses a token bucket algorithm to apply a rate limit on the bandwidth allocated to downstream clients. The rate limit can be applied globally across all downstream clients or per client.

Usage

rlproxy can be configured using command line flags or a configuration file or both. Type rlproxy -h to find out the flags supported by rlproxy. Settings specified using command line flags take precedence over settings in the configuration file. The configuration file must be a JSON file with the following format:

{
    "name": "my-beloved-app",
    "addrs": [
        "127.0.0.1:12000"
    ],
    "upstream": "127.0.0.1:12001"
    "rate": "10M",
    "burst": "64KiB",
    "per_client": false,
    "no_splice": false,
    "buf_size": "1 Mi",
    "logging": {
        "level": "info",
        "console": {
            "enabled": true,
            "pretty": true,
            "use_stderr": false

        },
        "syslog": {
            "enabled": false,
            "facility": "local0"
        }
    }
}
