Tor Relays :: defconrelay15

View Relay "defconrelay15"

Operator: defcon.org (8 relays) ✓ Validated | Family: 8 relays | email:info[]defcon.org... | AS7922 | United States of America | FreeBSD

Health Status

Consensus: In Consensus (9/9 Directory Auths)
Flags: Running, Stable, V2Dir, Valid (4)
BW Verified: 5/6 BW Auths Measured 48 bit/s Median
Stability: Not Overloaded | DOWN 5h 45m 43s ago | UP 100% (1M)

Reachability: IPv4: 9/9 (Directory Auths)
First Seen: 8mo 2w 4d ago
BW Weight: 0.00% of Network | 974 Kbit/s Observed By Relay
Version: 0.4.9.3-alpha Recommended

Issues Detected:

Guard: bandwidth below threshold : Observed bandwidth 0.1 MB/s is below 2 MB/s minimum (AuthDirGuardBWGuarantee)
Suggestion: Guard requires ≥2 MB/s bandwidth OR being in top 25% of network. To increase bandwidth: 1) Ensure adequate upstream capacity, 2) Check RelayBandwidthRate/RelayBandwidthBurst in torrc, 3) Monitor with Nyx or ARM.
Guard: requires Fast flag : Guard flag requires having the Fast flag first
Suggestion: Get Fast flag by having bandwidth ≥100 KB/s OR in top 7/8ths of network. Most relays get this easily.
High consensus weight deviation : Large variation in Consensus Weight values across authorities (see 'Cons Wt' column in Per-Authority Details below)
Suggestion: Consensus weight measurements vary significantly between authorities. This can affect traffic distribution. Ensure stable network connection and consistent bandwidth availability.

Consensus Evaluation

Data from Tor CollecTor (authority votes, fetched 2026-01-29 08:45:07).

Consensus Status (need ≥5/9): In Consensus — 9/9 authorities voted.
Flag Eligibility (need ≥5/9 for flag): Running: 9/9 | Valid: 9/9 | V2Dir: 9/9 | Fast: 4/9 | Stable: 8/9 | HSDir: 0/9 | Guard: 0/9
Reachability: IPv4: 9/9 | IPv6: 0/0
Consensus Weight (Dir. Auth.): Median: 48 bit/s | Min: 8 bit/s | Max: 968 bit/s [Warning] High deviation
Identified Issues:
- Guard: bandwidth below threshold: Observed bandwidth 0.1 MB/s is below 2 MB/s minimum (AuthDirGuardBWGuarantee)
  - Suggestion: Guard requires ≥2 MB/s bandwidth OR being in top 25% of network. To increase bandwidth: 1) Ensure adequate upstream capacity, 2) Check RelayBandwidthRate/RelayBandwidthBurst in torrc, 3) Monitor with Nyx or ARM.
- Guard: requires Fast flag: Guard flag requires having the Fast flag first
  - Suggestion: Get Fast flag by having bandwidth ≥100 KB/s OR in top 7/8ths of network. Most relays get this easily.
- High consensus weight deviation: Large variation in Consensus Weight values across authorities (see 'Cons Wt' column in Per-Authority Details below)
  - Suggestion: Consensus weight measurements vary significantly between authorities. This can affect traffic distribution. Ensure stable network connection and consistent bandwidth availability.

— = not tested/available • Format: relay value | authority threshold • WFU = Weighted Fractional Uptime • TK = Time Known

Bandwidth Values Explained:
Relay Reported = Your relay's self-reported bandwidth from its descriptor (observed_bandwidth). Used for flag eligibility (Guard, Fast).
Authority Measured = Bandwidth measured by authority's sbws scanner. Used for consensus weight (path selection probability).
Why different? Authorities verify your reported bandwidth independently. 6 of 9 authorities run bandwidth scanners; 3 use relay-reported values directly.

Stable Uptime (Two Data Sources):
Relay Uptime = From Onionoo API (last_restarted field). This is your relay's self-reported uptime from its descriptor. Same value for all authorities.
Authority Threshold = From CollecTor vote files (flag-thresholds stable-uptime). Each authority may have different thresholds.
Why two sources? Vote files contain authority thresholds but not per-relay uptime values. Onionoo aggregates relay descriptors which include uptime.
