Yifytorrents Proxy

For Telegram, it is recommended to use paid proxy servers of the Socks5 protocol. These proxies provide the user with data protection and high and stable connection speed. Telegram developers recommend using servers from European countries.

Go to "Settings" of the torrent, and then in the settings menu, select the subsection "Connection", which contains network connection settings. Under "Proxy" choose the type of your proxy (Socks5 proxy is recommended), then enter the IP address and proxy port in the appropriate fields, then click "Change". Now everything is ready - the torrent works through a proxy server.

Fail2Ban is a security tool that analyzes log files for malicious patterns and bans IP addresses that show suspicious activity. Although Fail2Ban is primarily designed to work with TCP-based protocols like SSH, HTTP, and MySQL, it can be configured to work with UDP-based protocols, including UDP flood attacks.

To use Fail2Ban to protect your server from UDP flood attacks, follow these steps:

1. Install Fail2Ban:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install fail2ban

2. Create a custom UDP log file:

Create a log file to store the UDP flood attack data. This log file should be located in the /var/log/ directory, and it should have the appropriate permissions. For example, you can create a log file named udp-flood.log:

sudo touch /var/log/udp-flood.log
sudo chown syslog:adm /var/log/udp-flood.log
sudo chmod 640 /var/log/udp-flood.log

3. Configure Fail2Ban to monitor the UDP log file:

Create a new filter file for UDP flood attacks, for example, /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/udp-flood.conf:

[Definition]
failregex = ^.*UDP.*Flood.*
ignoreregex =

Replace HOST with the actual hostname or IP address of your server, and with the IP address of the attacking host.

Next, create a new action file for UDP flood attacks, for example, /etc/fail2ban/action.d/udp-flood.conf:

[Definition]
actionstart =
actionstop =
actioncheck =
actionban = iptables -I INPUT -s  -j DROP; iptables-save
actionunban = iptables -D INPUT -s  -j DROP; iptables-save

Replace IP with the IP address of the banned host.

Finally, create a new jail configuration file for UDP flood attacks, for example, /etc/fail2ban/jail.d/udp-flood.local.conf:

[udp-flood]
enabled = true
port = 
logpath = /var/log/udp-flood.log
maxretry = 3
findtime = 300
bantime = 1800
action = udp-flood

Replace UDP_PORT with the UDP port you want to monitor.

Reload Fail2Ban configuration:

sudo systemctl reload fail2ban

To enable proxies in your MacBook, you need to go to "System Preferences" (from the "Apple" menu), then open "Network", then - specify the type of connection you are using. Then select "Advanced Settings" (can be named as "Advanced"), then click on "Proxy". And then - either set the parameters manually, or specify a configuration file.

Proxy servers are needed for Telegram, so that they can substitute their IP address instead of the real one. This procedure makes it possible to avoid blocking and bypass the ban on the messenger in our country. There are three types of protocols that can be set up for Telegram: Socks5, HTTP and MTPROTO. As for the last protocol, its own applications are developed for it.
