Description
The Invisible Internet Project (I2P) is an anonymous network, exposing a simple layer that applications can use to anonymously and securely send messages to each other. This KB articles describes how to block I2P traffic.
These are the signatures to be enabled for effectively blocking I2P traffic:
- PROXY-ACCESS | I2P signatures - These signatures identify legitimate (and illegitimate) I2P Proxy Access requests, e.g. GET http://www.domain.com/resource.i2p/abc. This signature does not identify or block encrypted I2P tunnels
- PROXY-ACCESS | Encrypted Key Exchange -- UDP Random Encryption - SID 7 blocks UDP tunnel traffic. Enabling this signature will not only block encrypted I2P traffic over UDB but also block other encrypted UDP traffic like IPSec VPN traffic passing through the SonicWall. Before enabling this signature, exclude the outside or inside IP addresses of legitimiate IPSec traffic.
- PROXY-ACCESS | Encrypted Key Exchange -- TCP Random Encryption - SID 5 blocks TCP tunnel traffic. Enabling this signature will not only block encrypted I2P traffic over TCP but also block other encrypted TCP traffic passing through the SonicWall. Before enabling this signature, exclude the outside or inside IP addresses of such legitimiate traffic.
