i2pd

i2pd (I2P Daemon) is a full-featured C++ implementation of I2P client.

I2P (Invisible Internet Protocol) is a universal anonymous network layer.
All communications over I2P are anonymous and end-to-end encrypted, participants don’t reveal their real IP addresses.

I2P client is a software used for building and using anonymous I2P networks. Such networks are commonly used for anonymous peer-to-peer applications (file sharing, cryptocurrencies) and anonymous client-server applications (websites, instant messengers, chat-servers).

I2P allows people from all around the world to communicate and share information without restrictions.

Use

Browse anonymous websites

o browse anonymous websites inside the Invisible Internet, configure your web browser to use HTTP proxy 127.0.0.1:4444 (available by default in i2pd).

In Firefox: Preferences -> Advanced -> Network tab -> Connection Settings -> choose Manual proxy configuration, Enter HTTP proxy 127.0.0.1, Port 4444

In Chromium: run chromium executable with key

chromium –proxy-server=”http://127.0.0.1:4444″

Host anonymous website

If you wish to run your own website in an Invisible Internet, follow these steps:

1) Run your web server and find out which host:port it uses (for example, 127.0.0.1:8080).

2) Configure i2pd to create HTTP server tunnel. Put in your ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf file:

[anon-website]
type = http
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 8080
keys = anon-website.dat

 

 

 

 

 

 

3) Restart i2pd.

4) Find b32 destination of your website.

Go to webconsole -> I2P tunnels page. Look for Sever tunnels and you will see an address like \<long random string>.b32.i2p next to anon-website.

A website is now available in Invisible Internet by visiting this address.

5) (Optional) Register short and memorable .i2p domain on inr.i2p.
