 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-05-15 - 17.0.0 - BREAKING CHANGE(smartproxy)
+Remove legacy migration utilities and deprecated forwarding helpers; consolidate route utilities, streamline interface definitions, and normalize IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses
+
+- Deleted ts/proxies/smart-proxy/utils/route-migration-utils.ts and removed its re-exports
+- Removed deprecated helper functions (httpOnly, tlsTerminateToHttp, tlsTerminateToHttps, httpsPassthrough) from ts/forwarding/config/forwarding-types.ts
+- Updated ts/common/port80-adapter.ts to consistently normalize IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses in IP comparisons
+- Cleaned up legacy connection handling code in route-connection-handler.ts by removing unused parameters and obsolete comments
+- Consolidated route utilities by replacing imports from route-helpers.js with route-patterns.js in multiple modules
+- Simplified interface definitions by removing legacy aliases and type checking functions from models/interfaces.ts
+- Enhanced type safety by replacing any remaining 'any' types with specific types throughout the codebase
+- Updated documentation comments and removed references to deprecated functionality
+
+## 2025-05-14 - 16.0.4 - fix(smartproxy)
+Update dynamic port mapping to support 'preserve' target port value
+
+- Refactored NetworkProxy to use a default port for 'preserve' values, correctly falling back to the incoming port when target.port is set to 'preserve'.
+- Updated RequestHandler and WebSocketHandler to check for 'preserve' target port instead of legacy preservePort flag.
+- Modified IRouteTarget type definitions to allow 'preserve' as a valid target port value.
+
+## 2025-05-14 - 16.0.4 - fix(smartproxy)
+Fix dynamic port mapping: update target port resolution to properly handle 'preserve' values across route configurations. Now, when a route's target port is set to 'preserve', the incoming port is used consistently in NetworkProxy, RequestHandler, WebSocketHandler, and RouteConnectionHandler. Also update type definitions in IRouteTarget to support 'preserve'.
+
+- Refactored port resolution in NetworkProxy to use a default port for 'preserve' and then correctly fall back to the incoming port when 'preserve' is specified.
+- Updated RequestHandler and WebSocketHandler to check if target.port equals 'preserve' instead of using a legacy 'preservePort' flag.
+- Modified RouteConnectionHandler to correctly resolve dynamic port mappings with 'preserve'.
+- Updated route type definitions to allow 'preserve' as a valid target port value.
+
+## 2025-05-14 - 16.0.3 - fix(network-proxy, route-utils, route-manager)
+Normalize IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses in IP matching functions and remove deprecated legacy configuration methods in NetworkProxy. Update route-utils and route-manager to compare both canonical and IPv6-mapped IP forms, adjust tests accordingly, and clean up legacy exports.
+
+- Updated matchIpPattern and matchIpCidr to normalize IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses.
+- Replaced legacy 'domain' field references with 'domains' in route configurations.
+- Removed deprecated methods for converting legacy proxy configs and legacy route helpers.

+- Improved logging and error messages in route-manager and route-utils for better debugging.
+
+## 2025-05-10 - 16.0.2 - fix(test/certificate-provisioning)
+Update certificate provisioning tests with updated port mapping and ACME options; use accountEmail instead of contactEmail, adjust auto-api route creation to use HTTPS terminate helper, and refine expectations for wildcard passthrough domains.
+
+- Changed portMap mapping: HTTP now maps 80 to 8080 and HTTPS from 443 to 4443
+- Replaced 'contactEmail' with 'accountEmail' in ACME configuration (set to 'test@bleu.de')
+- Updated auto-api route to use createHttpsTerminateRoute instead of createApiRoute for consistency
+- Adjusted expectations: passthrough domains are now included in certificate extraction when using terminate route with certificate 'auto'
+- Minor cleanup in test event handling and proxy stop routines

+# SmartProxy Port Handling
+
+This document covers all the port handling capabilities in SmartProxy, including port range specification, dynamic port mapping, and runtime port management.
+
+## Port Range Syntax
+
+SmartProxy offers flexible port range specification through the `TPortRange` type, which can be defined in three different ways:
+
+### 1. Single Port
+
+```typescript
+// Match a single port
+{
+  match: {
+    ports: 443
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Array of Specific Ports
+
+```typescript
+// Match multiple specific ports
+{
+  match: {
+    ports: [80, 443, 8080]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Port Range
+
+```typescript
+// Match a range of ports
+{
+  match: {
+    ports: [{ from: 8000, to: 8100 }]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Mixed Port Specifications
+
+You can combine different port specification methods in a single rule:
+
+```typescript
+// Match both specific ports and port ranges
+{
+  match: {
+    ports: [80, 443, { from: 8000, to: 8100 }]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Port Forwarding Options
+
+SmartProxy offers several ways to handle port forwarding from source to target:
+
+### 1. Static Port Forwarding
+
+Forward to a fixed target port:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: 8080
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Preserve Source Port
+
+Forward to the same port on the target:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: 'preserve'
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Dynamic Port Mapping
+
+Use a function to determine the target port based on connection context:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: (context) => {
+        // Calculate port based on request details
+        return 8000 + (context.port % 100);
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Port Selection Context
+
+When using dynamic port mapping functions, you have access to a rich context object that provides details about the connection:
+
+```typescript
+interface IRouteContext {
+  // Connection information
+  port: number;          // The matched incoming port
+  domain?: string;       // The domain from SNI or Host header
+  clientIp: string;      // The client's IP address
+  serverIp: string;      // The server's IP address
+  path?: string;         // URL path (for HTTP connections)
+  query?: string;        // Query string (for HTTP connections)
+  headers?: Record<string, string>; // HTTP headers (for HTTP connections)
+
+  // TLS information
+  isTls: boolean;        // Whether the connection is TLS
+  tlsVersion?: string;   // TLS version if applicable
+
+  // Route information
+  routeName?: string;    // The name of the matched route
+  routeId?: string;      // The ID of the matched route
+
+  // Additional properties
+  timestamp: number;     // The request timestamp
+  connectionId: string;  // Unique connection identifier
+}
+```
+
+## Common Port Mapping Patterns
+
+### 1. Port Offset Mapping
+
+Forward traffic to target ports with a fixed offset:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: (context) => context.port + 1000
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Domain-Based Port Mapping
+
+Forward to different backend ports based on the domain:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: (context) => {
+        switch (context.domain) {
+          case 'api.example.com': return 8001;
+          case 'admin.example.com': return 8002;
+          case 'staging.example.com': return 8003;
+          default: return 8000;
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Load Balancing with Hash-Based Distribution
+
+Distribute connections across a port range using a deterministic hash function:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: (context) => {
+        // Simple hash function to ensure consistent mapping
+        const hostname = context.domain || '';
+        const hash = hostname.split('').reduce((a, b) => a + b.charCodeAt(0), 0);
+        return 8000 + (hash % 10); // Map to ports 8000-8009
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## IPv6-Mapped IPv4 Compatibility
+
+SmartProxy automatically handles IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses for optimal compatibility. When a connection from an IPv4 address (e.g., `192.168.1.1`) arrives as an IPv6-mapped address (`::ffff:192.168.1.1`), the system normalizes these addresses for consistent matching.
+
+This is particularly important when:
+
+1. Matching client IP restrictions in route configurations
+2. Preserving source IP for outgoing connections
+3. Tracking connections and rate limits
+
+No special configuration is needed - the system handles this normalization automatically.
+
+## Dynamic Port Management
+
+SmartProxy allows for runtime port configuration changes without requiring a restart.
+
+### Adding and Removing Ports
+
+```typescript
+// Get the SmartProxy instance
+const proxy = new SmartProxy({ /* config */ });
+
+// Add a new listening port
+await proxy.addListeningPort(8081);
+
+// Remove a listening port
+await proxy.removeListeningPort(8082);
+```
+
+### Runtime Route Updates
+
+```typescript
+// Get current routes
+const currentRoutes = proxy.getRoutes();
+
+// Add new route for the new port
+const newRoute = {
+  name: 'New Dynamic Route',
+  match: {
+    ports: 8081,
+    domains: ['dynamic.example.com']
+  },
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: 9000
+    }
+  }
+};
+
+// Update the route configuration
+await proxy.updateRoutes([...currentRoutes, newRoute]);
+
+// Remove routes for a specific port
+const routesWithout8082 = currentRoutes.filter(route => {
+  const ports = proxy.routeManager.expandPortRange(route.match.ports);
+  return !ports.includes(8082);
+});
+await proxy.updateRoutes(routesWithout8082);
+```
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### Port Range Expansion
+
+When using large port ranges, SmartProxy uses internal caching to optimize performance. For example, a range like `{ from: 1000, to: 2000 }` is expanded only once and then cached for future use.
+
+### Port Range Validation
+
+The system automatically validates port ranges to ensure:
+
+1. Port numbers are within the valid range (1-65535)
+2. The "from" value is not greater than the "to" value in range specifications
+3. Port ranges do not contain duplicate entries
+
+Invalid port ranges will be logged as warnings and skipped during configuration.
+
+## Configuration Recipes
+
+### Global Port Range
+
+Listen on a large range of ports and forward to the same ports on a backend:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  name: 'Global port range forwarding',
+  match: {
+    ports: [{ from: 8000, to: 9000 }]
+  },
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'backend.example.com',
+      port: 'preserve'
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Domain-Specific Port Ranges
+
+Different port ranges for different domain groups:
+
+```typescript
+[
+  {
+    name: 'API port range',
+    match: {
+      ports: [{ from: 8000, to: 8099 }]
+    },
+    action: {
+      type: 'forward',
+      target: {
+        host: 'api.backend.example.com',
+        port: 'preserve'
+      }
+    }
+  },
+  {
+    name: 'Admin port range',
+    match: {
+      ports: [{ from: 9000, to: 9099 }]
+    },
+    action: {
+      type: 'forward',
+      target: {
+        host: 'admin.backend.example.com',
+        port: 'preserve'
+      }
+    }
+  }
+]
+```
+
+### Mixed Internal/External Port Forwarding
+
+Forward specific high-numbered ports to standard ports on internal servers:
+
+```typescript
+[
+  {
+    name: 'Web server forwarding',
+    match: {
+      ports: [8080, 8443]
+    },
+    action: {
+      type: 'forward',
+      target: {
+        host: 'web.internal',
+        port: (context) => context.port === 8080 ? 80 : 443
+      }
+    }
+  },
+  {
+    name: 'Database forwarding',
+    match: {
+      ports: [15432]
+    },
+    action: {
+      type: 'forward',
+      target: {
+        host: 'db.internal',
+        port: 5432
+      }
+    }
+  }
+]
+```
+
+## Debugging Port Configurations
+
+When troubleshooting port forwarding issues, enable detailed logging:
+
+```typescript
+const proxy = new SmartProxy({
+  routes: [ /* your routes */ ],
+  enableDetailedLogging: true
+});
+```
+
+This will log:
+- Port configuration during startup
+- Port matching decisions during routing
+- Dynamic port function results
+- Connection details including source and target ports
+
+## Port Security Considerations
+
+### Restricting Ports
+
+For security, you may want to restrict which ports can be accessed by specific clients:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  name: 'Restricted port range',
+  match: {
+    ports: [{ from: 8000, to: 9000 }],
+    clientIp: ['10.0.0.0/8'] // Only internal network can access these ports
+  },
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'internal.example.com',
+      port: 'preserve'
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Rate Limiting by Port
+
+Apply different rate limits for different port ranges:
+
+```typescript
+{
+  name: 'API ports with rate limiting',
+  match: {
+    ports: [{ from: 8000, to: 8100 }]
+  },
+  action: {
+    type: 'forward',
+    target: {
+      host: 'api.example.com',
+      port: 'preserve'
+    },
+    security: {
+      rateLimit: {
+        enabled: true,
+        maxRequests: 100,
+        window: 60 // 60 seconds
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Specific Port Ranges**: Instead of large ranges (e.g., 1-65535), use specific ranges for specific purposes
+
+2. **Prioritize Routes**: When multiple routes could match, use the `priority` field to ensure the most specific route is matched first
+
+3. **Name Your Routes**: Use descriptive names to make debugging easier, especially when using port ranges
+
+4. **Use Preserve Port Where Possible**: Using `port: 'preserve'` is more efficient and easier to maintain than creating multiple specific mappings
+
+5. **Limit Dynamic Port Functions**: While powerful, complex port functions can be harder to debug; prefer simple map or math-based functions
+
+6. **Use Port Variables**: For complex setups, define your port ranges as variables for easier maintenance:
+
+```typescript
+const API_PORTS = [{ from: 8000, to: 8099 }];
+const ADMIN_PORTS = [{ from: 9000, to: 9099 }];
+
+const routes = [
+  {
+    name: 'API Routes',
+    match: { ports: API_PORTS, /* ... */ },
+    // ...
+  },
+  {
+    name: 'Admin Routes',
+    match: { ports: ADMIN_PORTS, /* ... */ },
+    // ...
+  }
+];
+```

-# SmartProxy Project Restructuring Plan
+# SmartProxy Codebase Cleanup Plan
 
-## Project Goal
-Reorganize the SmartProxy codebase to improve maintainability, readability, and developer experience through:
-1. Standardized naming conventions
-2. Consistent directory structure
-3. Modern TypeScript patterns
-4. Clear separation of concerns
+## Overview
 
-## Current Architecture Analysis
+This document outlines a comprehensive plan to clean up the SmartProxy codebase by removing deprecated and unused code, consolidating functionality, and reducing complexity. The goal is to make the codebase more maintainable, easier to understand, and better positioned for future enhancements.
 
-Based on code analysis, SmartProxy has several well-defined but inconsistently named modules:
+## Phase 1: Remove Deprecated Code
 
-1. **SmartProxy** - Primary TCP/SNI-based proxy with configurable routing
-2. **NetworkProxy** - HTTP/HTTPS reverse proxy with TLS termination
-3. **Port80Handler** - HTTP port 80 handling for ACME and redirects
-4. **NfTablesProxy** - Low-level port forwarding via nftables
-5. **Forwarding System** - New unified configuration for all forwarding types
+### 1.1 Delete Legacy Migration Utilities ✅
 
-The codebase employs several strong design patterns:
-- **Factory Pattern** for creating forwarding handlers
-- **Strategy Pattern** for implementing different forwarding methods
-- **Manager Pattern** for encapsulating domain, connection, and security logic
-- **Event-Driven Architecture** for loose coupling between components
+The route migration utilities were created to assist in transitioning from the legacy domain-based configuration to the new route-based configuration system. As this migration is now complete, these utilities can be safely removed.
 
-## Target Directory Structure
+- **Action:** ✅ Remove `/ts/proxies/smart-proxy/utils/route-migration-utils.ts`
+- **Impact:** Low - This file is explicitly marked as temporary and for migration purposes only
+- **Dependencies:** ✅ Update any imports of these utilities (check forwarding-types.ts)

+### 1.2 Clean Up References to Deleted Files ✅
+
+Several files are marked for deletion in the git status but are still referenced in the codebase.
+
+- **Action:** ✅ Remove references to deleted route-helpers files:
+  - ✅ Update `/ts/proxies/smart-proxy/utils/index.ts` to remove `export * from './route-helpers.js';`
+  - ✅ Update `/ts/forwarding/config/forwarding-types.ts` to remove imports and re-exports of route helper functions
+- **Impact:** Medium - May break code that still relies on these helpers
+- **Dependencies:** ✅ Ensure route-patterns.js provides equivalent functionality (moved helper functions from route-helpers.js to route-patterns.ts)
+
+### 1.3 Remove Deprecated Forwarding Types and Helpers ✅
+
+Legacy forwarding types and helper functions in forwarding-types.ts are marked as deprecated.
+
+- **Action:** ✅ 
+  - ✅ Clean up `/ts/forwarding/config/forwarding-types.ts`
+  - ✅ Remove deprecated helper functions: `httpOnly`, `tlsTerminateToHttp`, `tlsTerminateToHttps`, `httpsPassthrough`

+  - ✅ Simplify connection handling logic by removing special cases for legacy configurations
+- **Impact:** Medium - Requires careful testing to ensure no regressions
+- **Dependencies:** ✅ Test with all current route configurations
+
+## Phase 3: Code Modernization
+
+### 3.1 Standardize on 'preserve' Port Handling ✅
+
+Previously implemented changes to use `port: 'preserve'` instead of `preservePort: true` should be consistently applied.
+
+- **Action:** ✅
+  - ✅ Ensure all code paths handle the 'preserve' value for port
+  - ✅ Remove any remaining references to preservePort in code and documentation
+- **Impact:** Low - Already implemented in most places

-## Import Strategy
-
-Since path aliases will not be used, we'll maintain standard relative imports throughout the codebase:
-
-1. **Import Strategy for Deeply Nested Files**
-   ```typescript
-   // Example: Importing from another component in a nested directory
-   // From ts/forwarding/handlers/http-handler.ts to ts/core/utils/validation-utils.ts
-   import { validateConfig } from '../../../core/utils/validation-utils.js';
-   ```
-
-2. **Barrel Files for Convenience**
-   ```typescript
-   // ts/forwarding/index.ts
-   export * from './config/forwarding-types.js';
-   export * from './handlers/base-handler.js';
-   // ... other exports
-
-   // Then in consuming code:
-   import { ForwardingHandler, httpOnly } from '../../forwarding/index.js';
-   ```
-
-3. **Flattened Imports Where Sensible**
-   ```typescript
-   // Avoid excessive nesting with targeted exports
-   // ts/index.ts will export key components for external use
-   import { SmartProxy, NetworkProxy } from '../index.js';
-   ```
-
-## Expected Outcomes
-
-### Improved Code Organization
-- Related code will be grouped together in domain-specific directories
-- Consistent naming conventions will make code navigation intuitive
-- Clear module boundaries will prevent unintended dependencies
-
-### Enhanced Developer Experience
-- Standardized interface naming will improve type clarity
-- Better documentation will help new contributors get started
-- Clear and predictable file locations
-
-### Maintainability Benefits
-- Smaller, focused files with clear responsibilities
-- Unified patterns for common operations
-- Improved separation of concerns between components
-- Better test organization matching source structure
-
-### Performance and Compatibility
-- No performance regression from structural changes
-- Backward compatibility through type aliases and consistent exports
-- Clear migration path for dependent projects
-
-## Migration Strategy
-
-To ensure a smooth transition, we'll follow this approach for each component:
-
-1. Create the new file structure first
-2. Migrate code while updating relative imports
-3. Test each component as it's migrated
-4. Only remove old files once all dependencies are updated
-5. Use a phased approach to allow parallel work
-
-This approach ensures the codebase remains functional throughout the restructuring process while progressively adopting the new organization.
-
-## Measuring Success
-
-We'll measure the success of this restructuring by:
-
-1. Reduced complexity in the directory structure
-2. Improved code coverage through better test organization
-3. Faster onboarding time for new developers
-4. Less time spent navigating the codebase
-5. Cleaner git blame output showing cohesive component changes
-
-## Special Considerations
-
-- We'll maintain backward compatibility for all public APIs
-- We'll provide detailed upgrade guides for any breaking changes
-- We'll ensure the build process produces compatible output
-- We'll preserve commit history using git move operations where possible
+All changes successfully compile and the build process passes with no errors. The codebase is now simpler, more maintainable, and better positioned for future enhancements.
