+Bridge relays (or "bridges" for short) are Tor relays that aren't listed in |
|
| 15 |
+the main directory. Since there is no complete public list of them, even if |
|
| 16 |
+your ISP is filtering connections to all the known Tor relays, they probably |
|
| 17 |
+won't be able to block all the bridges. |
|

|
| 19 |

|
| 20 |
+<p> |
|
| 21 |
+To use a bridge, you'll need to locate one. Furthermore, you'll need to |
|
| 22 |
+configure Tor with whatever bridge address you intend to use. |

|

+At the moment, you can get a bridge by visiting |
|
| 27 |
+<a href="https://bridges.torproject.org/">https://bridges.torproject.org/</a> |
|
| 28 |
+with your web browser. |

+As an example exercise, you'll get a bridge entry that looks like the |
|
| 37 |

|
| 38 |

|
| 39 |
+bridge 141.201.27.48:443 4352e58420e68f5e40bf7c74faddccd9d1349413 |

+Understanding the above example isn't strictly required but may prove useful. |

|
| 58 |
+To use the example bridge address above, go to Vidalia's Network settings |
|
| 59 |
+page, and click "My ISP blocks connections to the Tor network". You'll want |
|
| 60 |
+to add as many bridge addresses as you know about. Regardless of how many |
|
| 61 |
+bridges you intend to use, the process for use is the same. Add each bridge |
|
| 62 |
+address one at a time in the Vidalia Network settings page. One bridge should |
|
| 63 |
+be enough for general use. However, in the event of using a single bridge, |
|
| 64 |
+one bridge failing will cause loss of access to the Tor network. Adding |
|
| 65 |
+additional bridges will increase reliability. This is pictured below:<br><br> |

|

+<p> |
|
| 75 |
+Another way to find public bridge addresses is to send mail to |
|
| 76 |
+bridges@torproject.org with the line "get bridges" by itself in the body of the |
|
| 77 |
+mail. However, so we can make it harder for an attacker to learn lots of bridge |
|
| 78 |
+addresses, you must send this request from a gmail or yahoo account. |
