Basic usage

Log into OpenWrt via SSH and edit the config file /etc/config/shadowsocks.json. Then start the service like this:

root@Wrt:~# /etc/init.d/shadowsocks start # start the daemon
root@Wrt:~# /etc/init.d/shadowsocks enable # enable startup at boot

Advanced usage

The latest shadowsocks-libev has provided a transparent mode. You can configure your router with IPTABLES to proxy all tcp traffic transparently.

# Create new chain
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -N SHADOWSOCKS

# Ignore your shadowsocks server's addresses
# It's very IMPORTANT, just be careful.
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 123.123.123.123 -j RETURN

# Ignore LANs and any other addresses you'd like to bypass the proxy
# See Wikipedia and RFC5735 for full list of reserved networks.
# See ashi009/bestroutetb for a highly optimized CHN route list.
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 0.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 10.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 169.254.0.0/16 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 172.16.0.0/12 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 192.168.0.0/16 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 224.0.0.0/4 -j RETURN
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -d 240.0.0.0/4 -j RETURN

# Anything else should be redirected to shadowsocks's local port
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A SHADOWSOCKS -p tcp -j REDIRECT --to-ports 12345

# Apply the rules
root@Wrt:~# iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -j SHADOWSOCKS

# Start the shadowsocks-redir
root@Wrt:~# ss-redir -c /etc/config/shadowsocks.json -f /var/run/shadowsocks.pid
