A simple UDP-based NAT hole punching example for C.

Hole Punch: UDP NAT Punching

(c) Chris Kennelly ([email protected])

Overview

This repository contains a simple example of UDP hole punching in C. It compiles to two binaries, a server that relays client information and a simple client that ping-pongs data to and from another instance of itself.

This protocol may fail when two clients are behind the same NAT and encounter a router that will not send packets to its own external IP address.
