Your role in Tor network. There're several options:
exit
An exit relay. This allows Tor users to access regular
Internet services through your public IP.
Running an exit relay may expose you to abuse
complaints. See
for more info.
You can specify which services Tor users may access via
your exit relay using option.
relay
Regular relay. This allows Tor users to relay onion
traffic to other Tor nodes, but not to public
Internet.
Note that some misconfigured and/or disrespectful
towards privacy sites will block you even if your
relay is not an exit relay. That is, just being listed
in a public relay directory can have unwanted
consequences.
Which means you might not want to use
this role if you browse public Internet from the same
network as your relay, unless you want to write
e-mails to those sites (you should!).
See
for more info.
bridge
Regular bridge. Works like a regular relay, but
doesn't list you in the public relay directory and
hides your Tor node behind obfs4proxy.
Using this option will make Tor advertise your bridge
to users through various mechanisms like
, though.
WARNING: THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE.
Consult with your lawer when in doubt.
This role should be safe to use in most situations
(unless the act of forwarding traffic for others is
a punishable offence under your local laws, which
would be pretty insane as it would make ISP
illegal).
See
for more info.
private-bridge
Private bridge. Works like regular bridge, but does
not advertise your node in any way.
Using this role means that you won't contribute to Tor
network in any way unless you advertise your node
yourself in some way.
Use this if you want to run a private bridge, for
example because you'll give out your bridge address
manually to your friends.
Switching to this role after measurable time in
"bridge" role is pretty useless as some Tor users
would have learned about your node already. In the
latter case you can still change
option.
See
for more info.
