(from the February 19th, 2014 of Tor Weekly News:)

Rusty Bird announced [16] the release of corridor [17], a Tor traffic
whitelisting gateway. corridor will turn a Linux system into a router
that “allows only connections to Tor relays to pass through (no clearnet
leaks!)”. However, unlike transparent proxying solutions, “client
computers are themselves responsible for torifying their own traffic.”
