Hi,

I would like to share with the community some tests I've made for setting up a "swarm" of Tor relays.

I setted up 3 exit relays and 3 middle relays on the same IPv4 address, to make some testing, and the entire swarm works like a charm.

Due to Tor limitation, I have decided to build a template for preparing the cluster, and upload it to GitHub.

You can find the example mini-cluster here:

https://github.com/randomtable/ChimeraOS/tree/master/TorSwarm 

I have tested the exit capabilities on another network with different public IP address.

All the relays have published their own descriptors, I have prepared the containers as a single, separated machines.

The process is different from preparing a single relay, because of Docker build process.

I have disabled caching during the cluster process, so i have been able to modify torrc without issues.

Because  its very interesting, attached to this e-mail there is the console Logs from the 6 relays.

All containers are read-only, so the entire relay will destroy at the end of session.

I hope this can be useful.
