Switcher is a proxy server that accepts connections and proxies based on which protocol is detected. Switcher is heavily influenced by sslh. It started out as a learning exercise to discover how sslh worked and attempt an implementation in Go. The result is useful in its own right through use of Go's interfaces for protocol matching (making adding new protocols trivial), and lightweight goroutines (instead of forking, which is more CPU intensive under load).

Features

  • Currently implemented is SSH
  • The use case is running HTTP(S) and SSH on the same port
  • Accepts connections and proxies based on which protocol is detected
  • Switcher is heavily influenced by sslh
  • The result is useful in its own right through use of Go's interfaces for protocol matching
  • Lightweight goroutines
