# rathole

A fast and stable reverse proxy for NAT traversal, written in Rust
A fast, secure and stable reverse proxy for NAT traversal, written in Rust
rathole, like [frp](https://github.com/fatedier/frp), can help to expose the service on the device behind the NAT to the Internet, via a server with a public IP.
- **High Performance** Much higher throughput can be achieved than frp. See [Benchmark](#Benchmark)
- **Low Resource Consumption** Much less memory is consumed and well managed by Rust.
- **Secure Model** Tokens of services are mandatory and service-wise. The server and clients are responsible for their own configs.
- **Encryption** With the help of the Noise Protocol, encryption can be configured at ease. No need to create a self-signed certificate!
- **Flexibility** While the default profile produces a small binary, it can be customized to be even smaller to fit the constraints of devices, like embedded devices as routers.
## Quickstart
To use rathole, you need a server with a public IP, and a device behind the NAT, where some services that need to be exposed to the Internet.
