An internal ops runbook for setting up Nginx basic-auth on a deployed service gives the literal filesystem path /home/ceiec/bifang/nginx/htpasswd (and the corresponding docker volume mapping), directly tying the 'Bifang' policy-management API identified in the TSG OAM CLI guide to infrastructure branded/organized under 'ceiec' — consistent with this corpus's identification of CEIEC (China National Electronics Import & Export Corp) as an export intermediary for Geedge/TSG deployments.

An internal TSG operations/troubleshooting manual lays out TSG's full traffic pipeline (NIC -> mrzcpd/marsio capture driver -> sapp DPI engine -> firewall/proxy(KNI->TFE)/active-defense/WAN-NAT policy branches) and shows engineers using maat_redis_tool to pull the live Redis-synced blocking policy tables (TSG_SECURITY_COMPILE, TSG_OBJ_IP_ADDR, TSG_OBJ_APP_ID) and filter them by numeric policy/object ID to debug why a block rule isn't firing.

The internal 'MAAT网络流处理配置统一描述框架' engineering manual (v3.1.20, author 郑超, 2021) documents MAAT's Redis-synced rule-compilation framework and its RuleScan/Hyperscan-based pattern-matching engine (libmaatframe.so / librulescan), and records that RuleScan's fast-scan feature caused a production outage on 2019-03-19 and has been disabled ever since.

An internal TSG functional-requirements spec ('加密协议JG') defines device support for identifying and blocking ECH, ESNI and QUIC traffic via per-connection SNI/region-matching tables (e.g. DF_QUIC_REGION), plus a companion 'FD报文全流程感知' feature that both passively monitors and actively injects synthetic verification traffic end-to-end through the network path to compute a live per-rule 'CT率' (breakthrough/penetration rate) — the system self-measures how often its own QUIC/ESNI/ECH blocks fail to take effect, and separately throttles logging/blocking detail for rule IDs receiving unusually high hit counts (DF_ATTACK_PROTECTION, 'targeted attack detection').

Raw structured DNS event logs (dated 2021-08-23) captured from what appears to be a GFW-adjacent DNS monitoring/injection pipeline use a schema purpose-built for DNS response forgery ('CHEAT_TYPE', 'CHEAT_RCODE', 'CHEAT_STRATEGY', 'CHEAT_RR', 'INJECTED_PKT_FILE' fields) alongside per-query geolocation; sampled records show lookups for facebook.com and tiktokv.com originating from residential China Telecom/Unicom/Mobile subscriber IPs in Guangdong, Zhejiang, Anhui and other provinces, resolving against both domestic and foreign (8.8.8.8, OpenDNS) resolvers.

A 2023 MESA Lab monthly report describes the 'TF' project's active-defense work: test cases for serial ('串联') HTTP hijack/tamper and parallel ('并联') DNS race-injection ('DNS抢答'), performance tuning that scaled active-defense capacity from 3 to 5 units, converting two existing TSG boxes to active-defense mode, and rewriting the active-defense flow-control logic to no longer depend on sapp.

The T1/NTC (text-content DPI) node's wired-config manifest (main.conf, dated 2019-01-30) sets REMOTE_DIR=ASTANA/KAZAKHTELECOM/, directly naming Kazakhtelecom — Kazakhstan's dominant state-linked telecom operator — as the carrier context for this K18 deployment. The NTC_MAAT module's EFFECTIVE_FLAG further scopes rules to {location: Astana, isp: Tanstelecom}, naming a second Kazakhstani ISP (Transtelecom) tied to the same deployment.
