However, in recent years, a protocol called &#8220;Trojan&#8221; has rapidly become a top-tier solution on par with V2Ray due to its extreme camouflage capabilities and excellent performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a more stable and harder-to-discover &#8220;ladder,&#8221; then Trojan is definitely worth exploring. This guide will thoroughly explain what Trojan is, why it&#8217;s so powerful, and how to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>I. What is a Trojan ladder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Trojan, as its name suggests, is a Trojan horse whose core design philosophy is&#8230;<strong>The ultimate disguise and imitation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike SSR, which attempts to distort traffic beyond recognition, or V2Ray, which involves complex encapsulation, Trojan has chosen the smartest path:<strong>They perfectly and 100% mimicked the most common, ordinary, and unassailable HTTPS encrypted webpage access traffic on the Internet through their proxy traffic.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Its working principle can be understood as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Build a real website:<\/strong>&nbsp;The Trojan proxy server first disguises itself as a legitimate website that can be accessed normally via HTTPS. It has a real domain name and a real SSL certificate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Listening on standard ports:<\/strong>&nbsp;It listens for traffic directly on the most standard HTTPS port (port 443).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Identifying &#8220;our own people&#8221;:<\/strong>&nbsp;When you connect to the server using a Trojan client, a default &#8220;password&#8221; is included in the HTTPS request.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>If it&#8217;s an &#8220;insider&#8221; (proxy request):<\/strong>&nbsp;Once the server recognizes your password, it will provide you with proxy services to help you bypass the Great Firewall.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If it&#8217;s an &#8220;outsider&#8221; (such as GFW probe traffic):<\/strong>&nbsp;Since the probe traffic does not contain the correct password, the server will assume it is a normal access to the fake website and will directly return the website&#8217;s normal content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>To a firewall (GFW), every connection to your server appears to be a harmless access to a normal encrypted website, so it finds no reason to suspect or block it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>II. Why is Trojan the top-tier VPN choice?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Trojan&#8217;s ingenious design makes it exceptionally good at security, performance, and stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th>characteristic<\/th><th>explain<\/th><th>Why is it a top choice?<\/th><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Ultimate stealth<\/strong><\/td><td>The traffic is exactly the same at the protocol level as the HTTPS traffic generated by billions of people every day, without any additional or suspicious characteristics.<\/td><td><strong>&#8220;Hidden among the crowd&#8221;<\/strong>In the vast sea of \u200b\u200bpeople (massive HTTPS traffic), you are just one of the most ordinary people, almost impossible to be accurately identified.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Superior performance<\/strong><\/td><td>The protocol itself is very lightweight, without complex multi-layer encapsulation, the data processing flow is simple and direct, and the network transmission overhead is extremely low.<\/td><td><strong>High speed and low latency<\/strong>With comparable line quality, Trojan&#8217;s speeds are typically among the best, making it ideal for watching HD videos and online gaming.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>The principle is simple and stable.<\/strong><\/td><td>&#8220;If it&#8217;s someone we know, we act as a proxy; otherwise, we return to the website.&#8221; This logic is very clear and reduces potential vulnerabilities and bugs caused by the complexity of the protocol.<\/td><td><strong>It runs very stably.<\/strong>It is not prone to strange disconnections or connection problems, and has high reliability.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tested in real combat<\/strong><\/td><td>Trojan is no longer a niche tool; it has become a standard protocol for all major network gateways, boasts a large user base, and has withstood years of rigorous network environment testing.<\/td><td><strong>Mature and reliable<\/strong>It has an active community, with more powerful derivative versions such as Trojan-Go, and a well-developed ecosystem.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>III. How to use Trojan ladder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For ordinary users, you don&#8217;t need to set up your own website and server. You only need to use the Trojan nodes provided by the &#8220;airport&#8221; service provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prepare a client that supports Trojan:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Windows:<\/strong>&nbsp;<code>Clash Verge<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>v2rayN<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>macOS:<\/strong>&nbsp;<code>ClashX Pro<\/code>&nbsp;(or&nbsp;<code>Clash Verge<\/code>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Android:<\/strong>&nbsp;<code>ClashMeta for Android (CFA)<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>v2rayNG<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>iOS:<\/strong>&nbsp;<code>Shadowrocket<\/code>&nbsp;(Little Rocket)&nbsp;<code>Quantumult X<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>Stash<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Notice:<\/strong>&nbsp;You&#8217;ll find that many of these clients also support V2Ray, because they are all&#8230;<strong>Multiprotocol Client<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Get Trojan nodes or subscription links:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find your subscription link from the &#8220;airport&#8221; service provider you purchased from (usually a Clash or V2Ray universal subscription link).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This subscription link usually contains&#8230;<strong>It includes both Trojan nodes and V2Ray nodes.<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Import and connect:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Paste the subscription link into your client and click &#8220;Renew Subscription&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The client will automatically fetch all nodes. You will see that some nodes in the node list are explicitly labeled as &#8220;Trojan&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select a Trojan node (it is recommended to perform a latency test first and choose one with low latency), and then enable the system proxy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Congratulations, your &#8220;Trojan horse&#8221; has started working!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>IV.
