Dashboard

The Greyproxy dashboard is available at http://localhost:43080 once greyproxy is running. It provides a real-time view of proxy traffic and a management interface for rules and pending requests.

Dashboard Sections​

Overview​

The main dashboard view shows a real-time summary of proxy traffic:

  • Active connections
  • Recent requests
  • Traffic statistics

Pending Requests​

When greywall routes traffic through greyproxy with no matching allow rule, requests can be placed in a "pending" state for interactive review. From the Pending Requests view you can:

  • Approve a pending request — add the destination to the allow list
  • Deny a pending request — block the destination
  • See which process or container originated the request

This is especially useful during initial setup when you're building up your allow rules.

Rules​

The Rules section lets you manage the allow/deny policy for outbound traffic:

  • Add rules matching by destination hostname, port, or pattern
  • View and delete existing rules
  • Rules are stored in the SQLite database and persist across restarts

Logs​

The Logs section shows a historical record of all proxy requests, including:

  • Timestamp
  • Source (container/process)
  • Destination
  • Decision (allowed/denied/pending)

Real-Time Updates​

The dashboard uses WebSocket-based live updates, so you don't need to refresh to see new pending requests or rule changes.

Single Binary​

The entire dashboard — HTML, CSS, JavaScript, fonts, and icons — is embedded in the greyproxy binary. There is no separate frontend server to deploy or configure.
