ProtoOptionsGet command - Lists the options for the specified protocol
Help for command "ProtoOptionsGet"
Purpose:
Lists the options for the specified protocol
Description:
This command can be used to retrieve the options for a specific protocol.
Detailed info (e.g. value type) will be shown.
You can change an option's value with the ProtoOptionsSet command.
Usage:
ProtoOptionsGet [protocol]
Parameters:
protocol - Protocol name.
ProtoOptionsSet command - Sets an option's value for the specified protocol
Help for command "ProtoOptionsSet"
Purpose:
Sets an option's value for the specified protocol
Description:
This command can be used to change an option's value for a specific protocol.
You can retrieve the options using the ProtoOptionsGet command.
To execute this command, you must have VPN Server administrator privileges.
Usage:
ProtoOptionsSet [protocol] [/NAME:option_name] [/VALUE:string/true/false]
Parameters:
protocol - Protocol name.
/NAME - Option name.
/VALUE - Option value. Make sure to write a value that is accepted by the specified protocol!
PROTO_OPTION is a structure that describes an option (who would've guessed?).
It's designed in a way that allows it to occupy as low memory as possible, while providing great flexibility.
The idea is similar to the one implemented in LIST for trivial types, with the difference that PROTO_OPTION doesn't require casting due to the use of union.
The reason why we don't build these two targets is that they're not used.
More specifically: they require proper configuration to work correctly, which is currently missing.
While vpninstall may be worth salvaging, vpnweb is definitely a relict of the past because it relies on ActiveX.
BuildUtil compiles the project as 32 bit and 64 bit, before building the installer package.
64 bit binaries have the "_x64" suffix and are added to the package alongside the 32 bit ones (that have no suffix).
The CMake project compiles the binaries for a single architecture and they have no suffix.
We decided that providing two separate installers is the best solution.
As for the binaries with the "_ia64" suffix: they never existed during the this repository's lifespan.
The MSBuild project built the binary into "src/bin/hamcore", causing it to be added to "hamcore.se2".
As hinted by the name of the file ("vpnsetup_nosign.exe"), it is not signed by BuildUtil, possibly to save time (the setup package is signed).
The CMake project builds the binary in the same directory as the other ones, allowing the setup to install them without the need to build a package.
Previously, the file needed to be present in order for the setup to work.
This commit removes the requirement so that the setup can be ran from the build directory without the need to copy the file (which is now removed from the repository).
The SSTP implementation doesn't provide packet identification, because it's not required: the protocol is identified by the HTTP header it sends to the server.
"ClientOption", as the name implies, is only used in a client context.
The issue was introduced in 235bd07e67. Before that, an unrelated check prevented UnixVLanSetState() from being called in a server context.
SoftEther VPN originally created the NIC in the UP state and never changed it, even when the the client was not connected.
The behavior was changed in 59e1483dbf, which also added the NicDownOnDisconnect option
The option was disabled by default for backwards compatibility with scripts that don't check whether the NIC is down, but it's not ideal.
This commit forces the correct behavior and removes the commands "TUNDownOnDisconnectEnable", "TUNDownOnDisconnectDisable" and "TUNDownOnDisconnectGet".
PortsUDPSet: This command can be used to specify a single or multiple UDP ports the server should listen on. "0" can be specified to disable the UDP listener.
Administrator privileges are required to execute the command.
PortsUDPGet: This command can be used to retrieve the UDP ports the server is listening on.
The two commands replace the functionality that was previously provided by OpenVpnEnable and OpenVpnGet, respectively.
Originally, StrToPortList() returned NULL when it encountered a number equal to 0 or higher than 65535.
This commit adds a new parameter to the function called "limit_range":
- When its value is true, the function retains the original behavior.
- When its value is false, the function doesn't check whether the number is in the network port number range (1-65535).
The change is required because the command to set the UDP ports will allow to remove all ports by specifying "0" as the port number.
Now that Proto supports UDP, the server can handle multiple protocols on each UDP port.
The UDP ports are specified by the "OpenVPN_UdpPortList" configuration setting, because:
- OpenVPN is currently the only UDP protocol supported by SoftEther VPN to allow a custom port number.
- Before Proto was introduced, a unified interface for the protocols didn't exist; each protocol implementation had to create its own listener.
In preparation for the upcoming WireGuard implementation, this commit renames "OpenVPN_UdpPortList" to "PortsUDP", which should clarify that the setting is global.
The change is reflected in the code. Also, the ports are now stored in a LIST rather than a string. The conversion between string and LIST only happens when loading/saving the configuration.
The default UDP ports are now the same as the TCP ones (443, 992, 1194, 5555).

456 sessions = proto->Sessions;
As a side effect, the DH parameter is now applied to the TCP server as well.
Previously, the default value was always used, ignoring the one from the configuration.
When a datagram is received, the matching session is looked up in a hash list; if it's not found, a new session is created.
This method allows to use a single UDP port for multiple protocols, as we do with TCP.
Also, each session has its own dedicated thread, used to process the received datagrams and generate the ones that are then sent through the UDP listener.
In addition to guaranteeing constant performance, separate threads also prevent a single one from blocking all sessions.
- An additional parameter is added to IsPacketForMe(), used to specify the protocol type (currently either TCP or UDP).
- SupportedModes() is dropped because it's now redundant.
- IsOk() and EstablishedSessions() are dropped because error checking should be handled by the implementation.
- ProtoImplDetect() now takes a buffer and its size rather than a SOCK, so that it can be used to detect UDP protocols.
- The OpenVPN toggle check is moved to ProtoImplDetect(), so that we don't have to duplicate it once UDP support is implemented.
