 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-03-11 - 3.30.6 - fix(PortProxy)
+Improve TLS renegotiation handling in PortProxy by validating the new SNI against allowed domain configurations. If the new SNI is permitted based on existing IP rules, update the locked domain to allow connection reuse; otherwise, terminate the connection to prevent misrouting.
+
+- Added logic to check if a new SNI during renegotiation is allowed by comparing IP rules from the matching domain configuration.
+- Updated detailed logging to indicate when a valid SNI change is accepted and when it results in a mismatch termination.
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 3.30.5 - fix(internal)
+No uncommitted changes detected; project files and tests remain unchanged.
+
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 3.30.4 - fix(PortProxy)
+Fix TLS renegotiation handling and adjust TLS keep-alive timeouts in PortProxy implementation
+
+- Allow TLS renegotiation data without an explicit SNI extraction to pass through, ensuring valid renegotiations are not dropped (critical for Chrome).
+- Update TLS keep-alive timeout from an aggressive 30 minutes to a more generous 4 hours to reduce unnecessary reconnections.
+- Increase inactivity thresholds for TLS connections from 20 minutes to 2 hours with an additional verification interval extended from 5 to 15 minutes.
+- Adjust long-lived TLS connection timeout from 45 minutes to 8 hours for improved certificate context refresh in chained proxy scenarios.
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 3.30.3 - fix(classes.portproxy.ts)
+Simplify timeout management in PortProxy and fix chained proxy certificate refresh issues
+
+- Reduced TLS keep-alive timeout from 8 hours to 30 minutes to ensure frequent certificate refresh
+- Added aggressive TLS state refresh after 20 minutes of inactivity and secondary verification checks
+- Lowered long-lived TLS connection lifetime from 12 hours to 45 minutes to prevent stale certificates
+- Removed configurable timeout settings from the public API in favor of hardcoded sensible defaults
+- Simplified internal timeout management to reduce code complexity and improve certificate handling in chained proxies
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 3.31.0 - fix(classes.portproxy.ts)
+Simplified timeout management and fixed certificate issues in chained proxy scenarios
+
+- Dramatically reduced TLS keep-alive timeout from 8 hours to 30 minutes to ensure fresh certificates
+- Added aggressive certificate refresh after 20 minutes of inactivity (down from 4 hours)
+- Added secondary verification checks for TLS refresh operations
+- Reduced long-lived TLS connection lifetime from 12 hours to 45 minutes
+- Removed configurable timeouts completely from the public API in favor of hardcoded sensible defaults
+- Simplified interface by removing no-longer-configurable settings while maintaining internal compatibility
+- Reduced overall code complexity by eliminating complex timeout management
+- Fixed chained proxy certificate issues by ensuring more frequent certificate refreshes in all deployment scenarios
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 3.30.2 - fix(classes.portproxy.ts)
+Adjust TLS keep-alive timeout to refresh certificate context.
+
+- Modified TLS keep-alive timeout for connections to 8 hours to refresh certificate context.
+- Updated timeout log messages for clarity on TLS certificate refresh.
+
+## 2025-03-10 - 3.30.1 - fix(PortProxy)
+Improve TLS keep-alive management and fix whitespace formatting
+
+- Implemented better handling for TLS keep-alive connections after sleep or long inactivity.
+- Reformatted whitespace for better readability and consistency.
+
+## 2025-03-08 - 3.30.0 - feat(PortProxy)
+Add advanced TLS keep-alive handling and system sleep detection
+
+- Implemented system sleep detection to maintain keep-alive connections.
+- Enhanced TLS keep-alive connections with extended timeout and sleep detection mechanisms.
+- Introduced automatic TLS state refresh after system wake-up to prevent connection drops.
+
+## 2025-03-07 - 3.29.3 - fix(core)
+Fix functional errors in the proxy setup and enhance pnpm configuration
+
+- Corrected pnpm configuration to include specific dependencies as 'onlyBuiltDependencies'.
+
+## 2025-03-07 - 3.29.2 - fix(PortProxy)
+Fix test for PortProxy handling of custom IPs in Docker/CI environments.
+
+- Ensure compatibility with Docker/CI environments by standardizing on 127.0.0.1 for test server setup.
+- Simplify test configuration by using a unique port rather than different IPs.
+
+## 2025-03-07 - 3.29.1 - fix(readme)
+Update readme for IPTablesProxy options
+
+- Add comprehensive examples for IPTablesProxy usage.
+- Expand IPTablesProxy settings with IPv6, logging, and advanced features.
+- Clarify option defaults and descriptions for IPTablesProxy.
+- Enhance 'Troubleshooting' section with IPTables tips.
+
 ## 2025-03-07 - 3.29.0 - feat(IPTablesProxy)
 Enhanced IPTablesProxy with multi-port and IPv6 support

+If you're experiencing issues with IPTablesProxy:
+
+1. **Enable Detailed Logging**: Set `enableLogging: true` to see all rule operations
+2. **Force Clean Slate**: Use `forceCleanSlate: true` to remove any lingering rules
+3. **Use Custom Chains**: Enable `addJumpRule: true` for cleaner rule management
+4. **Check Permissions**: Ensure your process has sufficient permissions to modify iptables
+5. **Verify IPv6 Support**: If using `ipv6Support: true`, ensure ip6tables is available
