Relay Packet
|
|
|
|
|
|
A client that expects to be the target of a hole punch
|
|
must contact the server frequently, to keep a UDP
|
|
"connection" open, so that the server may relay hole
|
|
punching requests to them.
|
|
|
|
A client makes a hole punching request to another client
|
|
by sending a Relay Packet to the server. The server then
|
|
sends another Relay Packet to the client described by the
|
|
first packet. The second packet is filled with the source
|
|
address and port of the first packet.
|
|
|
|
Once a client receives a Relay Packet, this protocol's
|
|
purpose is fulfilled and the client is aware that another
|
|
client requests a hole punch.
