NeXuS Transparent Routing Architecture¶

Complete Multi-Layer Darknet Routing System¶

Version: 1.0 Date: 2026-02-12 Status: DESIGN SPECIFICATION Philosophy: Sane • Simple • Secure • Stealthy • Beautiful

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY¶

This document defines the complete transparent routing architecture for NeXuS, transforming ALL network traffic into multi-layer anonymized communication through TOR, I2P, Yggdrasil, and Reticulum networks. Built on the proven Medusa proxy foundation (@datawookie — thank you, Wookie), this architecture provides UNSTOPPABLE resilience and INVISIBLE leak-proof operation.

Key Principles: - Transparent: ALL traffic routed automatically, zero application configuration - Multi-Layer: Nested anonymity chains (I2P over TOR, Yggdrasil over I2P/TOR, etc.) - Leak-Proof: DNS, IPv6, WebRTC, and all other leaks prevented at firewall level - Resilient: Automatic failover, health checking, circuit rotation - Split-Tunneling: Whitelist support for local/trusted traffic

1.2 Leak Prevention Matrix¶

Leak Type	Prevention Method	Layer
DNS Leak	Force all DNS to dnscrypt-proxy (port 5353) → TOR	nftables DNAT
IPv6 Leak	Block ALL IPv6 traffic at firewall + kernel	nftables DROP + sysctl
WebRTC Leak	Browser policy forcing proxy for all UDP	Browser config
Application Bypass	Transparent REDIRECT (no app can bypass)	nftables REDIRECT
Time-based Fingerprint	Random time offset in TOR circuits	TOR config
MTU Fingerprint	Normalize packet sizes	Privoxy + TOR

2.2 Domain Routing Logic¶

Request arrives → Check Host header
                   │
                   ├─ Ends with .onion  → backend_tor_onion (direct TOR SOCKS)
                   ├─ Ends with .i2p    → backend_i2p (I2P HTTP proxy over TOR)
                   ├─ Ends with .ygg    → backend_yggdrasil (Ygg proxy over TOR/I2P)
                   ├─ Ends with .local  → backend_local (direct, whitelisted only)
                   └─ Anything else     → backend_tor_clear (Privoxy → TOR)

4. DNS ARCHITECTURE¶

Purpose: Prevent ALL DNS leaks while handling special TLDs

4.1 DNSCrypt-Proxy Configuration¶

# /etc/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml

# Sane • Simple • Secure • Stealthy • Beautiful

listen_addresses = ['127.0.0.1:5353']
max_clients = 250

# Use only DNSCrypt servers over TOR
server_names = ['cloudflare', 'google', 'quad9-dnscrypt-ip4-nofilter']

# Force all DNS through TOR SOCKS proxy
proxy = 'socks5://127.0.0.1:9050'

# DNS caching

# Query logging (for debugging only)

# Blocked names (malware/tracking)

# Special TLD handling
[static]

    stamp = 'sdns://AgcAAAAAAAAAAAAHNC40LjQuNA'  # I2P resolver

  [static.'ygg']
    stamp = 'sdns://AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA'  # Yggdrasil resolver

4.2 Special TLD Resolution¶

TOR .onion Resolution:

# Handled directly by TOR SOCKS proxy
# HAProxy routes .onion to TOR backend
# No DNS needed - onion addresses are keys

I2P .i2p Resolution:

#!/bin/bash
# /home/user/scripts/nexus-i2p-resolver.sh

# I2P addressbook for .i2p domain resolution
# Queries I2P router's addressbook API

DOMAIN="$1"
I2P_CONSOLE="http://127.0.0.1:7657"

# Query I2P addressbook
DEST=$(curl -s "$I2P_CONSOLE/susidns/addressbook.jsp?book=router&hostname=$DOMAIN" \
       | grep -oP 'Destination:\s*\K[A-Za-z0-9\-~]+')

if [ -n "$DEST" ]; then
    echo "$DEST"
else
    echo "ERROR: .i2p domain not found in addressbook"
    exit 1
fi

Yggdrasil .ygg Resolution:

#!/bin/bash
# /home/user/scripts/nexus-ygg-resolver.sh

# Yggdrasil uses IPv6 addresses
# Resolve .ygg to Yggdrasil IPv6

DOMAIN="$1"
YGG_ADMIN="http://127.0.0.1:9001"

# Query Yggdrasil admin API for peer info
IPV6=$(curl -s "$YGG_ADMIN/api" \
       -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
       -d '{"request":"getNodeInfo","name":"'$DOMAIN'"}' \
       | jq -r '.response.address')

if [ "$IPV6" != "null" ]; then
    echo "$IPV6"
else
    echo "ERROR: .ygg domain not found"
    exit 1
fi

4.3 DNS Leak Test Script¶

#!/bin/bash

echo ""

# Test 1: Check resolv.conf
echo "[1] Checking /etc/resolv.conf..."

# Test 4: WebRTC leak test

# Test 5: Compare real IP vs TOR IP

DEPLOYMENT GUIDE¶

Step 1: Install Dependencies¶

# Alpine Linux (NeXuS base system)
apk add tor privoxy haproxy dnscrypt-proxy nftables docker docker-compose

# TOR bridges/pluggable transports
apk add obfs4proxy snowflake

# I2P (via Docker)
docker pull divax/i2p:current

# Yggdrasil
apk add yggdrasil

# Reticulum
pip install rns

Step 2: Create Service User¶

# Non-privileged user for proxy services
adduser -D -s /bin/false nexus-proxy

Step 3: Deploy Configuration Files¶

# Copy all configurations from this document to appropriate locations
cp nexus-transparent-firewall.sh /home/user/scripts/
cp nexus-master.cfg /etc/haproxy/
cp nexus-master.conf /etc/privoxy/
# ... etc

Step 4: Enable Systemd Services¶

# Create systemd service files for each component
systemctl enable tor@default
systemctl enable privoxy@{0..2}
systemctl enable haproxy
systemctl enable dnscrypt-proxy
systemctl enable yggdrasil

Step 5: Start Stack¶

/home/user/scripts/nexus-proxy-master.sh start

Step 6: Verify Operation¶

# Run health check
/home/user/scripts/nexus-proxy-health.sh

# Test anonymity
curl http://check.torproject.org

# DNS leak test
/home/user/scripts/nexus-dns-leak-test.sh

SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS¶

Threat Model¶

Threat	Mitigation
ISP monitoring	All traffic encrypted through TOR/I2P
DNS leaks	Forced DNSCrypt over TOR, IPv6 disabled
Application bypass	Transparent interception at firewall level
TOR correlation attacks	Multi-layer chains (I2P over TOR, etc.)
Exit node sniffing	HTTPS enforcement, certificate pinning
Browser fingerprinting	Privoxy header modification + uBlock filters
Time-based attacks	Random TOR circuit rotation

Best Practices¶

Never disable IPv6 blocking - Major leak vector
Rotate TOR circuits frequently - Use NewCircuitPeriod=120
Use HTTPS everywhere - Encrypt end-to-end even through TOR
Enable uBlock Origin - Additional tracking protection
Disable JavaScript when possible - Reduces fingerprinting surface
Use Tor Browser for sensitive activity - Additional anonymity features
Monitor logs regularly - Watch for anomalies
Test for leaks weekly - Run DNS/IP leak tests

PERFORMANCE TUNING¶

Expected Latency¶

Route	Approximate Latency
Direct (local)	< 10ms
TOR only	200-500ms
I2P over TOR	1-3 seconds
Yggdrasil over TOR	500ms-2s
Reticulum over I2P	2-5 seconds

Bandwidth Optimization¶

# HAProxy connection pooling
tune.bufsize 32768
tune.maxrewrite 8192

# TOR bandwidth settings
RelayBandwidthRate 10 MB
RelayBandwidthBurst 20 MB

# Privoxy compression
enable-compression 1

# DNS caching
cache_size = 8192
cache_max_ttl = 86400

TROUBLESHOOTING¶

Common Issues¶

Problem: TOR circuits not building

# Check TOR logs
journalctl -u tor@default -f

# Try bridge mode
echo "UseBridges 1" >> /etc/tor/torrc
systemctl restart tor

Problem: I2P not connecting

# Check I2P console
xdg-open http://127.0.0.1:7657

# Verify TOR outproxy
docker logs nexus-i2p-over-tor

Problem: DNS resolution failing

# Test DNSCrypt
dig @127.0.0.1 -p 5353 example.com

# Check if dnscrypt-proxy is using TOR
lsof -i :5353

Problem: HAProxy backend down

# Check HAProxy stats
xdg-open http://localhost:9999

# Test backend directly
curl --socks5 127.0.0.1:9050 https://check.torproject.org

FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS¶

NeXuS Node Mesh - Nodes find each other and route traffic through peer network
Automatic Bridge Discovery - Fetch fresh TOR bridges automatically
Load Balancing across Nodes - Distribute traffic across multiple NeXuS nodes
Failover to alternate darknet - If TOR fails, auto-switch to I2P
Blockchain-based DNS - Integrate Namecoin/Ethereum Name Service for censorship-resistant DNS
Steganography Layer - Hide darknet traffic in innocent-looking HTTP

CONCLUSION¶

This architecture provides UNSTOPPABLE and INVISIBLE network communication through:

✅ Complete transparency - Zero application configuration needed
✅ Multi-layer anonymity - Nested chains (I2P/Ygg/Reticulum over TOR)
✅ Leak-proof design - DNS, IPv6, WebRTC all prevented at firewall level
✅ Automatic failover - Health checking and service restart
✅ Censorship resistance - Snowflake bridges, pluggable transports
✅ Beautiful interface - Clean CLI tools and web dashboard

Together Everyone Achieves More - This is the NeXuS way.

Document prepared for the NeXuS Supervisory Entity Generated: 2026-02-12 Version: 1.0 Status: DESIGN COMPLETE - READY FOR IMPLEMENTATION

Next Steps: 1. Review architecture with Anon 2. Begin implementation phase 3. Test in isolated environment 4. Deploy to production NeXuS nodes
