Greetings everyone!

I present a utility for supporting Xray on Keenetic routers — Xkeen.
All the code is written in pure shell and is open source on GitHub.

This post is updated regularly. The latest version is always on the Keenetic

What is Xray

Xray / v2ray is a very flexible utility for proxying and securing connections, created to bypass the GFW (Great Firewall of China).
It can even bypass blocks in Iran. I believe this solution will be sufficient in the Russian Federation for a considerable time.

The solution will not work in Turkmenistan without deep configuration
The solution will not work in the DPRK.
There is no internet there in the sense we are used to
The solution is used not only for bypassing blocks, but also for securing connections

Key features of Xray

Selective work with DNS using modern protocols
Creating your own DNS — FakeDNS
Support for reverse proxying — Reverse Proxy
Configuring policies for different users
Routing supporting
- Geoip
- Geosite — the same as Geoip, but with domains.
- Regular expressions

- Partial matches
- Subdomains
Rule-based segmentation and management of incoming traffic by protocol
Rule-based segmentation and management of outgoing traffic by protocol
Using modern transport protocols
Ensuring transport security

If your device is not on the list, it doesn't mean Xkeen won't work on it.
It just means it hasn't been tested on it. Feel free to try installing it on your device.
You won't break anything.

If, when executing the command

xkeen -start

you get an error similar to

line 1: can't open html: no such file
line 2: syntax error: unexpected redirection

Please report it in the thread or to me via private message, specifying your router model.
The error will be fixed in a future update. Until then, your device is not supported.

Installation method

opkg install curl tar
curl -s -L https://github.com/Skrill0/XKeen/releases/latest/download/xkeen.tar --output xkeen.tar && tar -xvf xkeen.tar -C /opt/sbin --overwrite > /dev/null && rm xkeen.tar
xkeen -i

Select the GeoIP and GeoSite you are interested in.
You can install them all at once.
Set the automatic update time.
Done. You are awesome.
You can now configure Xray to suit your needs.
The configuration files are located at "/opt/etc/xray/configs/"
Some have detailed descriptions. You can delete them.

Useful links for configuration

Xray GitHub repository
X project chat on Telegram — you can ask our Chinese friends.
I recommend writing in English.

Basic method for manual routing configuration

Besides GeoIP / GeoSite, there are the following options for adding routes

Partial match
"vk.com" = "vk.com.ru", "music.vk.com.ru", "www.vk.com/im" ≠ vk.ru
Regular expression
Example entry: "regexp:\\.ya.*\\.ru$" = "www.yandex.ru", "mail.yandex.ru" ≠ "ya.ru"
Must start with "regexp:"
Subdomain
Example entry: "domain:keenetic.com" = "forum.keenetic.com" ≠ "forum.keenetic12345.com"
Exact match
Example entry: "full:keenetic.com" = "keenetic.com" ≠ "www.keenetic.com", "keenetic123.com"

Example entry in 10_routing.json

{
  "routing": {
    "rules": {
      "domain": [ //Указываем нужные Вам доменные имена
        "full:keenetic.com", // Точное совпадение
        "domain:keenetic.com", // Поддомен
        "regexp:\\.ya.*\\.ru$", // Регулярное выражение
        "vk.com", // Частичное совпадение
        "ext:geosite_antizapret.dat:ZAPRETINFO" // GeoSite AntiZapret
      ],
      "ip": [ // Указываем нужные Вам IP
        "192.168.1.1", // Точное совпадение
        "10.0.0.0/8", // CIDR
        "ext:geoip_antifilter.dat:antifilter" // GeoIP AntiFilter
      ],
      "outboundTag": "proxy" // Указываем тег подключения, через которое открывать ресурсы
    }
  }
}

When using the built-in Keenetic proxy client

The proxy client component from the firmware does not support UDP — Official response from Keenetic support

Настройки маршрута в Web роутера — Route settings in the router's Web UI

At this stage, the built-in proxy client is the easiest way to direct the connection to Xray.
In 99% of cases, there is no point in messing with tproxy / dokodemo-door or marking UDP/TCP traffic.

The Keenetic proxy client directs the connection to Xray running on the router. And only then, for example, to the connection with the VPS.
Xray will also wrap your traffic in whatever you specified in its configuration.
For example, in TCP. Because the client and server connection must have an identical configuration. Otherwise, your traffic will be recognized as "foreign".

Maintaining comfort even on a mobile network

Once Xray is configured on the router, it can be used as a portal.
No additional configuration settings are needed for this.

Here are 2 ways to solve this task
1. IKE connection according to the Keenetic
2. SSTP connection according to the Keenetic / Thanks to @Alexey77

Uninstallation method

opkg remove xkeen
opkg remove xray

Delete backups in "/opt/"
* If you don't need backups of Xray / Xkeen / your configurations.

Known issues

~~Incorrectly detects processor model~~ ~~MIPS 1004Kc~~ Fixed
Xray compiles incorrectly on MIPS 24kc processors In progress
~~The -tpx key does not work~~ Fixed
~~Incorrectly works the selection of individual GeoIPs~~ Fixed

If Xray autorun on router startup or automatic updates do not work

Check that you have specified the path to the Entware autoloader initiator in the router's Web UI. This is done as follows

Access the interface through the router's gateway. By default, it is 192.168.1.1
Management > OPKG
Check the "initrc script" field. It should have the following content

/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung

Acknowledgements

If you need help

First, try to find the answer on the Keenetic forum using keywords
