Nginx Configuring TCP Proxy Forwarding Implementation

Use the new Nginx stream method to implement TCP/UDP proxy forwarding.

After Nginx installed the stream module.

Revise

Under the main configuration fileAdd stream configuration.

For example nginx home is/opt/software/nginx

cd /opt/software/nginx/conf

vim 

Added the following configuration

stream {

    log_format proxy '$remote_addr [$time_local] '
                 '$protocol $status $bytes_sent $bytes_received '
                 '$session_time "$upstream_addr" '
                 '"$upstream_bytes_sent" "$upstream_bytes_received" "$upstream_connect_time"';

    access_log /opt/software/nginx/logs/ proxy ;
    open_log_file_cache off;

	# Unified placement for easy management	include tcpConf/*.conf;
}

Add stream configuration

Create a tcp configuration folder to facilitate the unified management of configuration files in the future:

cd /opt/software/nginx/conf

mkdir tcpConf

Create a configuration file

cd tcpConf

vim 

Edited as follows:

upstream tcp9004 {
    server 118.178.188.188:8992;
}

server {
    listen 9004;
    proxy_connect_timeout 8s;
    proxy_timeout 24h;
    proxy_pass tcp9004;
}

Test to restart Nginx

Test Nginx

cd /opt/software/nginx

./sbin/nginx -t

After no problem

Restart Nginx

./sbin/nginx -s reload

Port monitoring

Use tcpdump to listen for tcp data

Install tcpdump

yum install -y tcpdump

View network card

ifconfig

Listen to the corresponding port on the network card

tcpdump -n -v -i eth1 port 8992
