Deploying the probe-services backend for distributing openvpn IPs and credentials is not on the roadmap for the next few releases. We have shipped a hardcoded domain in the august release.

In some countries, DNS poisoning can be observed. We want to add a couple of fallback domains to the experiment. Additionally, having a way to easily distribute new IPs can allow us to verify if a block is based on an IP ban, 5-tuple rules, or use of DPI.

Three things are needed for this to happen:

  • Modify probe code to pick more endpoints, and keep iterating if domain resolution fails.
  • Add DNS records (@hellais)
  • Setup new endpoints / transparent proxies.
