from ports others than the 80 / 443 duo. from ports others than the HTTP / HTTPS ports.
## Authentication
The client can authenticate agains the server relays through two different means:
* Using a token
* Using a client TLS certificate. In this case, the server relay must act as a HTTPS server, and you must provide the
server the required certificates / key files in PEM format. It is also possible to provide the server a CRL file.
## Binaries
This repository contains two binaries: This repository contains two binaries:
* `tpc_relay_server`: The server relay * `tpc_relay_server`: The server relay. In case of token authentication, it can be put behind a reverse proxy.
* `tcp_relay_client`: The client relay * `tcp_relay_client`: The client relay
The clients relay authenticates itself to the server using a token.
A single server - client relay pair can relay multiple ports simultaneously from the same machine. A single server - client relay pair can relay multiple ports simultaneously from the same machine.
