Sizzler is a Linux tool, which sets up a virtual network interface on a computer, and transmit the data sent/received from it to another computer running the same program.
The transmission utilizes WebSocket, a common technology used in modern websites. Therefore all other technologies for optimizing WebSocket connections apply also for Sizzler: firewalls allowing WebSockets will also allow Sizzler connections; reverse proxies for accelerating accesses may also work.
The network interface set up by Sizzler behaves like a normal network interface. Since transmitted are IP packets, not only TCP but also UDP and ICMP are supported.
Sizzler is MIT licensed.
# Install
Use PyPI to install:
sudo pip3 install sizzler
# Usage
sizzler can be run in command line:
sizzler -h for help
sudo sizzler -c CONFIG_FILE, supply a config file in [YAML format][YAML] and start the program in client mode. Sizzler requires root priviledge! But it will drop that right after virtual network interface is set up and run.
sudo sizzler -s CONFIG_FILE, just like above, but in server mode.
sizzler -e will print an example config file to standard output.
