Re: [tor-relays] WebTunnel: What ASNs/networks work best?



I followed this documentation: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/webtunnel#docker-setup

Near the bottom is a link to a docker-compose file that references the "thetorproject/webtunnel-bridge:latest" Docker image.

When running a WebTunnel bridge, what types of IPs are better for
serving requests? My background is with self-hosted home-lab type of
setups. There are a number of different ways for homelabs to accept
inbound https connections. A few examples:

- Forward a port on a home router.
- Rent a cloud VM/VPS and tunnel a port from the VPS's IP.
- Have a CDN tunnel/forward requests.
- VPN hybrid solutions like Tailscale Funnel.

Are any of these better than others for hosting a WebTunnel bridge?
Should cloud provider IPs be preferred over residential IPs, for
example, considering that is where most web servers are hosted? Are
large CDNs preferred over individual cloud VMs? Is it better to use a
different IP for WebTunnel than the IP that runs the OR port (i.e.
host OR port on home IP and WebTunnel from a cloud-based IP)?

I'm mainly asking to determine which way helps the broadest number of
Tor users. And which is less likely to be blocked in the future. What
are the best practices?

PS: Thanks for the webtunnel-bridge Docker image and the documentation
on how to run it. It was very helpful and made setup easy.
