Veeam Tape Proxy

Several virtual proxy servers can be created within one device. These are special dedicated servers that only "service" such traffic. Many devices can connect to them at the same time.

In AnyDesk, in order to ensure maximum security of transmitted traffic, you can use proxies, including encryption of traffic. The setting is made through the regular menu of the application. You will need to go to "Options", select "Connection", specify the proxy and port number. Connection is made automatically after that.

To test a UDP sender, you can create a mock UDP client that simulates the behavior of the real UDP client. This way, you can test the sending functionality without actually sending data over the network.

Here's an example of how to create a mock UDP client and write a unit test for a UDP sender in C#:

1. Create a mock UDP client class:

public class MockUdpClient : IDisposable
{
    private readonly byte[] _receivedBytes;
    private int _receivedCount;

    public MockUdpClient()
    {
        _receivedBytes = new byte[1024];
        _receivedCount = 0;
    }

    public void Receive(byte[] data, int length)
    {
        Array.Copy(data, _receivedBytes, length);
        _receivedCount++;
    }

    public void Dispose()
    {
        // Clean up any resources if needed
    }

    public int ReceivedCount => _receivedCount;

    public byte[] ReceivedData => _receivedBytes;
}

2. Modify the UDP sender to accept a mock UDP client:

public class UdpSender
{
    private readonly MockUdpClient _mockUdpClient;

    public UdpSender(MockUdpClient mockUdpClient)
    {
        _mockUdpClient = mockUdpClient;
    }

    public void SendData(string data)
    {
        var bytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(data);
        _mockUdpClient.Receive(bytes, bytes.Length);
    }
}

3. Write a unit test for the UDP sender:

[TestClass]
public class UdpSenderTests
{
    [TestMethod]
    public void TestSendData()
    {
        // Arrange
        var mockUdpClient = new MockUdpClient();
        var udpSender = new UdpSender(mockUdpClient);
        var data = "Test data";

        // Act
        udpSender.SendData(data);

        // Assert
        Assert.AreEqual(1, mockUdpClient.ReceivedCount);
        CollectionAssert.AreEqual(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(data), mockUdpClient.ReceivedData);
    }
}

In this example, we created a MockUdpClient class that simulates the behavior of a real UDP client. The UdpSender class now accepts a MockUdpClient as a parameter, allowing us to test the sending functionality without actually sending data over the network.

Finally, we wrote a unit test using the TestClass and TestMethod attributes from the Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting namespace. The test method TestSendData checks whether the UdpSender class sends data correctly by comparing the received data with the expected data.

Setting up a proxy on your TV depends on the type of TV and the operating system it uses. Some smart TVs run on platforms like Android TV, webOS, or Tizen, which allow you to install apps and configure network settings. Here, I will provide instructions for popular smart TV platforms:

Android TV:
- Press the "Home" button on your remote control.
- Scroll up or down to "Apps" and highlight "Settings."
- Select "Network" or "Network & Internet."
- Choose "Advanced settings" or "More settings."
- Select "Manage proxy settings" or "Proxy settings."
- Choose "Enable proxy" and enter the proxy server address, port, and authentication credentials (if required).
- Save the settings and restart your TV if necessary.

webOS (LG Smart TV):
- Press the "Home" button on your remote control.
- Scroll up or down to "Settings" and select it.
- Choose "All Settings" or "General."
- Select "Network" or "Internet."
- Choose "Wi-Fi Direct" or "Wired" depending on your connection type.
- Select "Advanced settings" or "Internet settings."
- Choose "Manual proxy settings" and enter the proxy server address, port, and authentication credentials (if required).
- Save the settings and restart your TV if necessary.

Tizen (Samsung Smart TV):
- Press the "Menu" button on your remote control.
- Scroll up or down to "Settings" and select it.
- Choose "General" or "Network."
- Select "Network status" or "Internet."
- Choose "Wi-Fi" or "Wired" depending on your connection type.
- Select "Advanced settings" or "Internet settings."
- Choose "Manual proxy settings" and enter the proxy server address, port, and authentication credentials (if required).
- Save the settings and restart your TV if necessary.

Technically, ISP can block only some intermediary servers by IP-addresses. But it's impossible to block absolutely all VPN-servers, because there are so many of them and their addresses are constantly changing. Accordingly, in this case, you just need to use another VPN-server.
