# SSH Tunnel Workaround for iPhone Proxy ## The Problem Oracle Cloud Security List blocks proxy ports, and you don't have console access right now. ## Solution: SSH Tunnel via Your Mac Since SSH (port 22) is already open, we can use it to tunnel proxy traffic! ### Step 1: Create SSH Tunnel on Your Mac Open Terminal on your Mac and run: ```bash ssh -L 7890:127.0.0.1:7890 -N server2 ``` Or run in background: ```bash ssh -f -N -L 7890:127.0.0.1:7890 server2 ``` This creates a tunnel: `Your Mac:7890` → `SSH` → `server2:7890` ### Step 2: Configure iPhone to Use Your Mac as Proxy **Option A: If Mac and iPhone on Same Wi-Fi** 1. **On your Mac:** - System Settings → Network → Wi-Fi → Details → TCP/IP - Note your Mac's local IP (e.g., `192.168.1.100`) 2. **On iPhone:** - Settings → Wi-Fi → ⓘ (next to your Wi-Fi network) - Scroll to **HTTP Proxy** → **Manual** - **Server:** `192.168.1.100` (your Mac's IP) - **Port:** `7890` - **Authentication:** Off (SSH tunnel doesn't need it, but Clash does) **Wait - this won't work because Clash needs authentication...** ### Better Solution: Use SOCKS Proxy Over SSH Actually, SSH can create a SOCKS proxy directly! ### Step 3: Use SSH SOCKS Proxy (Better Method) **On your Mac, run:** ```bash ssh -D 1080 -N server2 ``` This creates a SOCKS5 proxy on your Mac at `127.0.0.1:1080` **Then on iPhone (same Wi-Fi):** - Settings → Wi-Fi → ⓘ → HTTP Proxy → Manual - **Server:** `192.168.1.100` (your Mac's IP) - **Port:** `1080` - **Type:** SOCKS5 (if option available) **But iOS HTTP Proxy doesn't support SOCKS5...** ### Best Workaround: Use a Proxy App on Mac Install a local proxy server on your Mac that: 1. Connects to server2 via SSH tunnel 2. Provides HTTP proxy for iPhone ### Alternative: Use Tailscale (If Available) If you can use Tailscale: 1. Enable Tailscale VPN on iPhone 2. Configure Shadowrocket to use: `100.70.115.1:7890` 3. This bypasses Oracle Cloud firewall ### Simplest Workaround: Keep SSH Tunnel + Use Mac as Bridge 1. **On Mac:** Create SSH tunnel to server2's Clash 2. **On Mac:** Run a local proxy server that iPhone can connect to 3. **On iPhone:** Connect to Mac's proxy Let me create a script for this...
