GNUnet P2P Framework 0.9.0: Posted Dec 1, 2011; Authored by Christian Grothoff | Site ovmj.org; GNUnet is a peer-to-peer framework with focus on providing security. All peer-to-peer messages in the network are confidential and authenticated. The framework provides a transport abstraction layer and can currently encapsulate the network traffic in UDP (IPv4 and IPv6), TCP (IPv4 and IPv6), HTTP, or SMTP messages. GNUnet supports accounting to provide contributing nodes with better service. The primary service build on top of the framework is anonymous file sharing.; Changes: This release is a major change of the architecture and a rewrite of most of the system. Improvements include a new multi-process architecture, a new VPN subsystem, a new setup tool (including automated correctness tests for the configuration), support for non-anonymous mesh routing, data transport over HTTPS and WLAN, peer discovery in the LAN via broadcast (IPv4) and multicast (IPv6), improved connectivity via NAT traversal, an event-driven execution model providing significant performance improvements, and power publishing for file sharing to improve content replication.; tags | tool, web, udp, tcp, peer2peer; systems | unix; SHA-256 | 77c4522c92b55c60c8ec7a05a516d395b7066545f15280db85bd012105560ea8; Download | Favorite | View
