Features

• DPI-based protocol identification: Supports Layer 7 protocol parsing and HTTPS domain resolution, and operates independently of DNS.
• Industry-standard architecture: Flow-based identification for high efficiency, with extremely low hardware requirements.
• Supports custom protocol signatures: Offers a high degree of flexibility and customization.
• Supports installation as a plugin on OpenWrt systems: Compatible with all OpenWrt-enabled devices.You can download the plugin package corresponding to your architecture from the releases page.

How to Compile

1. Prepare a set of OpenWrt source code that has already been successfully compiled into firmware. (Instructions for compiling OpenWrt source code can be found via independent tutorials and will not be covered here.)
2. Clone the OAF source code. Navigate to the root directory of your OpenWrt source code and execute the following command:

git clone https://github.com/destan19/OpenAppFilter.git package/OpenAppFilter

3. Enable the OAF compilation options. Application Filtering consists of three distinct source packages, corresponding to the LuCI App, the service daemon, and the kernel module. Before compiling, you must enable the build options for these three packages. You can do this by selecting luci-app-oaf via the make menuconfig graphical interface. Alternatively, you can enable them by executing the following commands (run from the source code root directory):

echo "CONFIG_PACKAGE_luci-app-oaf=y" >>.config
make defconfig

This will automatically enable the compilation options for all three modules.

4. Begin compiling OAF. If you have previously successfully compiled your OpenWrt source code, you can choose to compile only the individual packages:

make package/luci-app-oaf/compile V=s
make package/open-app-filter/compile V=s
make package/oaf/compile V=s

Alternatively, you can recompile the entire firmware image; this will integrate the plug-in directly into the firmware build:

make V=s
