Clash

A rule-based tunnel in Go.

Features

• Local HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS server with authentication support
• Shadowsocks(R), VMess, VLESS, Trojan, Snell, WireGuard, SOCKS5, HTTP(S) outbound support
• Built-in fake-ip DNS server that aims to minimize DNS pollution attack impact. DoH/DoT upstream supported.
• Rules based off dynamic scripting, domains, GEOIP, GEOSITE, IP-CIDR or process names to route packets to different destinations
• Proxy groups allow users to implement powerful rules. Supports automatic fallback, load balancing or auto select proxy based off latency
• Remote providers, allowing users to get proxy lists remotely instead of hardcoding in config
• Transparent proxy: Redirect TCP and TProxy TCP/UDP with automatic route table/rule management
• Hot-reload via the comprehensive HTTP RESTful API controller
• System/gVisor stack TUN device on macOS, Linux and Windows
• Policy routing with Scripts

Getting Started

Documentations are available at GitHub Wiki.

Advanced usage for this branch

General configuration

# sniffing: true # Sniff TLS SNI

force-cert-verify: true # force verify TLS Certificate for all proxies, prevent Machine-In-The-Middle attack

profile:
  tracing: false # prevent logs leak, default value is true

experimental:
  udp-fallback-policy: 'a proxy that supports UDP' # or `direct` or `reject`

MITM configuration

A root CA certificate is required, the MITM proxy server will generate a CA certificate file and a CA private key file in your Clash home directory, you can use your own certificate replace it.

Need to install and trust the CA certificate on the client device, open this URL http://mitm.clash/cert.crt by the web browser to install the CA certificate, the host name 'mitm.clash' was always been hijacked.

NOTE: this feature cannot work on tls pinning

WARNING: DO NOT USE THIS FEATURE TO BREAK LOCAL LAWS

DNS configuration

Support lookup ip with a proxy tunnel or interface.

Support geosite with fallback-filter.

Use curl -X POST controllerip:port/cache/fakeip/flush to flush persistence fakeip

dns:
  enable: true
  use-hosts: true
  ipv6: false
  remote-dns-resolve: true # remote resolve DNS on handle TCP connect and UDP session, default value is true
  enhanced-mode: fake-ip
  fake-ip-range: 198.18.0.1/16
  listen: 127.0.0.1:6868
  default-nameserver:
    - 119.29.29.29
    - 114.114.114.114
  nameserver:
    - https://doh.pub/dns-query
    - tls://223.5.5.5:853
  fallback:
    - 'tls://8.8.4.4:853#proxy or interface'
    - 'https://1.0.0.1/dns-query#Proxy' # use a proxy or interface
  remote-nameserver: # remote resolve DNS
    - 'tls://1.1.1.1:853'
    - 'tls://8.8.8.8:853'
  fallback-filter:
    geoip: false
    geosite:
      - gfw  # `geosite` filter only use fallback server to lookup ip, prevent DNS leaks to untrusted DNS providers.
    domain:
      - +.example.com
    ipcidr:
      - 0.0.0.0/32

TUN configuration

Simply add the following to the main configuration:

NOTE:

auto-route and auto-detect-interface only available on macOS, Windows and Linux, receive IPv4 traffic

tun:
  enable: true
  stack: system # or gvisor
  # dns-hijack:
  #   - 8.8.8.8:53
  #   - tcp://8.8.8.8:53
  #   - any:53
  #   - tcp://any:53
  auto-route: true # auto set global route
  auto-detect-interface: true # conflict with interface-name

or

interface-name: en0

tun:
  enable: true
  stack: system # or gvisor
  # dns-hijack:
  #   - 8.8.8.8:53
  #   - tcp://8.8.8.8:53
  auto-route: true # auto set global route

It's recommended to use fake-ip mode for the DNS server.

Clash needs elevated permission to create TUN device:

$ sudo ./clash

Then manually create the default route and DNS server. If your device already has some TUN device, Clash TUN might not work. In this case, fake-ip-filter may helpful.

Enjoy! :)

For Windows:

tun:
  enable: true
  stack: gvisor # or system
  dns-hijack:
    - 198.18.0.2:53 # when `fake-ip-range` is 198.18.0.1/16, should hijack 198.18.0.2:53
  auto-route: true # auto set global route for Windows
  # It is recommended to use `interface-name`
  auto-detect-interface: true # auto detect interface, conflict with `interface-name`

Finally, open the Clash

Rules configuration

• Support rule SCRIPT shortcuts.
• Support rule GEOSITE.

Script configuration

Script enables users to programmatically select a policy for the packets with more flexibility.

NOTE: If you want to use ctx.geoip(ip) you need to manually resolve ip first.

      for kw in ['analytics', 'adservice', 'firebase', 'bugly', 'safebrowsing', 'doubleclick']:
        if kw in host:
          return "REJECT"

      # now = time.now()
      # if (now.hour < 8 or now.hour > 18) and metadata["src_ip"] == '192.168.1.99':

        return "Proxy"

      if ctx.rule_providers["geolocation-cn"].match(metadata):
        ctx.log('[Script] domain %s matched geolocation-cn' % host)
        return "DIRECT"

      ip = metadata["dst_ip"]
      if ip == "":
        ip = ctx.resolve_ip(host)
        if ip == "":

Tunnels configuration

tunnels (like SSH local forwarding).

tunnels:
  # one line config
  - tcp/udp,127.0.0.1:6553,114.114.114.114:53,proxy
  - tcp,127.0.0.1:6666,rds.mysql.com:3306,vpn
  # full yaml config
  - network: [tcp, udp]
    address: 127.0.0.1:7777
    target: target.com
    proxy: proxy

eBPF

It requires Linux kernel version >= 4.5, support redirect-to-tun and auto-redir features.

redirect-to-tun:

only hook traffic of the egress NIC, conflict with auto-route and auto-redir.

interface-name: eth0

ebpf:
  redirect-to-tun:
    - eth0

tun:
  enable: true
  stack: system
  dns-hijack:
    - any:53
  auto-route: false

auto-redir:

only hook TCP traffic of the ingress NIC and conflict with redirect-to-tun, It can be replaced with redir-port (TCP) without any network config.

It's recommended to work with TUN to handle UDP traffic. It improves the network throughput performance of some low performance devices compared to using exclusively TUN.

interface-name: eth0

ebpf:
  auto-redir:
    - eth0
    # - wlan0

tun:
  enable: true
  stack: system
  dns-hijack:
    - any:53
  auto-route: true

Template

• General, usually used as a local client.
• Auto redirect, usually used as a transparent proxy gateway.
• Redirect to tun, usually used as a transparent proxy gateway.

Daemon

• For macOS.
• For Linux.
• For Windows.
