Transport
The two encrypted transport layers for Kovri

The Basics

@I2P comes with two encrypted transport layer technologies that allow @Kovri to securely use TCP/IP connections. These technologies (@SSU and @NTCP) are called @transports.

In-depth information

@SSU is encrypted UDP and @NTCP is encrypted TCP. They provide @encryption at the transport layer so higher level @messages can be sent through @tunnels across the @I2P network.

Notes

  • Read about @I2P's transports on the Transport page
