A tun2socks implementation written in Go that routes traffic from a TUN network interface through a SOCKS proxy. It can be used as a command-line tool or embedded as a library in mobile and desktop applications.

Use cases

  • route all system traffic through a SOCKS proxy
  • build a VPN-like client that tunnels TUN traffic via a proxy server
  • embed tun2socks into an iOS or Android proxy app
  • create a custom tun2shadowsocks tool with a custom handler
  • redirect UDP and TCP traffic from a virtual network interface

When to choose

  • you need a Go-based tun2socks library to embed in your own proxy client
  • you want to route TUN interface traffic through a SOCKS5 proxy
  • you need a cross-platform tun2socks with mobile bindings

When to avoid

  • you need the best performance and lower memory usage - the author recommends the Rust-based leaf instead
  • you need an actively developed tool - the latest release is from 2021
  • you want a ready-made end-user VPN application with a GUI
