Re: [tor-relays] Prepping bridges for censorship

Hi,

So I had a thought. It seems like a lot of the relays run off of
various port numbers (of course). However if all of the relays and
bridges are running off of various port numbers (ie 9001, 10000,
etc.), couldn’t this stop censored users (who’s isp or local firewall
only allows certain ports like 80 and 443) from being able to connect
to the tor network even when using bridges due to the port that the
bridge of guard relay being run on a port number that is blocked by
the isp or local firewall?

Just a thought.

Sure, just like for guard relays, for bridges it makes sense to configure
ORPort to be 443 or 80, to be reachable from behind messy firewalls.
