• Project Crate: https://crates.io/crates/fortifynet_proxy

Features

1. Proxy Authentication: Securely authenticate users before allowing access to resources.
2. HTTP Request Handling: Efficiently handle HTTP requests and generate appropriate responses.
3. Activity Logging: Log proxy server activities for monitoring and troubleshooting.
4. Resource Caching: Cache frequently accessed resources to optimize performance.
5. Graceful Shutdown: Gracefully shutdown the proxy server to ensure data integrity and user experience.

Installation

To use FortifyNet Proxy in your Rust project, add the following line to your Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
fortifynet_proxy = "1.1.7"

Usage

Basic Usage

To use the FortifyNet Proxy Server, follow these simple steps:

• Define a ProxyConfig struct to specify the server configuration parameters.
• Start the proxy server using the start_proxy_server function with the provided configuration.

use fortifynet_proxy::{ProxyConfig, start_proxy_server};

fn main() {
    // Define proxy server configuration
    let config = ProxyConfig {
        ip_address: "127.0.0.1".to_string(),
        port: 8080,
        authentication: true,
        username: "admin".to_string(),
        password: "password123".to_string(),
        cache_enabled: true,
    };

    // Start the proxy server with the provided configuration
    start_proxy_server(config);
}

Customization:

FortifyNet Proxy offers extensive configuration options:

• IP Address and Port: Specify the desired IP address and port for the server.
• Authentication: Enable user authentication with custom usernames and passwords.
• Resource Caching: Implement caching strategies to store frequently accessed resources and improve performance.

Advanced Usage

Customized Authentication

Configure custom authentication settings to enforce user access control.

use fortifynet_proxy::{ProxyConfig, start_proxy_server};

fn main() {
    // Configure custom authentication
    let config = ProxyConfig {
        ip_address: "127.0.0.1".to_string(),
        port: 8080,
        authentication: true,
        username: "admin".to_string(),
        password: "password123".to_string(),
        cache_enabled: true,
    };

    // Start the proxy server with custom authentication
    start_proxy_server(config);
}

Resource Caching Strategies

Implement resource caching strategies to optimize network performance.

use fortifynet_proxy::{ProxyConfig, start_proxy_server};

fn main() {
    // Configure resource caching
    let config = ProxyConfig {
        ip_address: "127.0.0.1".to_string(),
        port: 8080,
        authentication: false,
        username: "".to_string(),
        password: "".to_string(),
        cache_enabled: true,
    };

    // Start the proxy server with resource caching enabled
    start_proxy_server(config);
}

Graceful Shutdown Handling

Gracefully shutdown the proxy server to ensure ongoing connections are completed.

use fortifynet_proxy::{ProxyConfig, start_proxy_server};

fn main() {
    // Configure proxy server
    let config = ProxyConfig {
        ip_address: "127.0.0.1".to_string(),
        port: 8080,
        authentication: false,
        username: "".to_string(),
        password: "".to_string(),
        cache_enabled: true,
    };

    // Start the proxy server
    let server_thread = start_proxy_server(config);

    // Gracefully shutdown the server after a specified time
    std::thread::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(10));
    server_thread.join().expect("Failed to join server thread");
}
