frp is an open-source fast reverse proxy that exposes services running behind a NAT or firewall to the public internet. Both the server (frps) and the client (frpc) include built-in HTTP admin APIs that operators can use to inspect runtime status, manage proxies and visitors, hot-reload configuration, and scrape Prometheus metrics.
