Overview

There are three main ways to use GOST as a tunnel.

Proxy

As a proxy service to access the network, multiple protocols can be used in combination to form a forwarding chain for traffic forwarding.

Port Forwarding

Mapping the port of one service to the port of another service, you can also use a combination of multiple protocols to form a forwarding chain for traffic forwarding.

Reverse Proxy

Use tunnel and intranet penetration to expose local services behind NAT or firewall to public network for access.

Installation

Binary files

https://github.com/go-gost/gost/releases

Packages (DEB/RPM)

Download the package for your architecture from the releases page (amd64, amd64v3, arm64):

# Debian/Ubuntu
sudo apt install ./gost_<version>_linux_amd64.deb

# RHEL/Fedora
sudo dnf install ./gost_<version>_linux_amd64.rpm

The amd64v3 package requires an AVX2-capable CPU (x86-64-v3); use amd64 otherwise.

The packages ship a systemd service, but it is not enabled automatically: create /etc/gost/gost.yml first (see /usr/share/doc/gost/examples/gost.yml), then run sudo systemctl enable --now gost. Without a config file the service is skipped rather than failing.
