Jingle Relay Nodes
A couple of weeks ago,Thiago helped me out understand the basics of Jingle Relay Nodes. He explained that, the server needs to open 4 ports and transfer data coming into them with each one of the other. His exact email
In fact your server will have to open 4 ports in total, 1rtp + 1rtcp for each
end point. Lets call them A, A', B, B' respectively. Every packet that
arrives at A needs to be sent through B to whichever address(IP:Port) is
sending to B. Every packet that arrives at A' needs to be sent through B' to
whichever address(IP:Port) is sending to B'.
Every packet that arrives at B needs to be sent through A to whichever
address(IP:Port) is sending to A. Every packet that arrives at B' needs to be
sent through A' to whichever address(IP:Port) is sending to A'. Exception: *
If no packet was received in a given port, packets to be sent through that port
should be discarded. Remarks: * There is no process to verify that a sender to
a given port is the real sender of the stream.
The recommended mitigation is to create a race of packets, for the latest 10
received packets in a given port, only relay and update Address to the one
sender holding the majority of the packets.I ended up implementing the same in TCP. mod jingle relay nodes and mod jingle channel
