2. Hole punching (networking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_punching_(networking)

   Fast-paced online multi-player games may use a hole punching technique or require users to create a permanent firewall pinhole in order to reduce network latency. VPN applications such as Hamachi, ZeroTier, and Tailscale utilize hole punching to allow users to connect directly to subscribed devices behind firewalls.

3. UDP hole punching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDP_hole_punching

   UDP hole punching is a method for establishing bidirectional UDP connections between Internet hosts in private networks using network address translators. The technique is not applicable in all scenarios or with all types of NATs, as NAT operating characteristics are not standardized.

4. LogMeIn Hamachi - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LogMeIn_Hamachi

   LogMeIn Hamachi is a virtual private network (VPN) application developed and released in 2004 by Alex Pankratov. [1] [2] It is capable of establishing direct links between computers that are behind network address translation (NAT) firewalls without requiring reconfiguration (when the user's PC can be accessed directly without relays from the Internet/WAN side).

5. TCP hole punching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_hole_punching

   TCP hole punching is an experimentally used NAT traversal technique for establishing a TCP connection between two peers on the Internet behind NAT devices. NAT traversal is a general term for techniques that establish and maintain TCP/IP network and/or TCP connections traversing NAT gateways.

6. NAT traversal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAT_traversal

   In Windows XP, NAT traversal is enabled by default, but in Windows XP with Service Pack 2 it has been disabled by default for the case when the VPN server is also behind a NAT device, because of a rare and controversial security issue. [6] IPsec NAT-T patches are also available for Windows 2000, Windows NT and Windows 98. [citation needed]

7. Firewall pinhole - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_pinhole

   In computer networking, a firewall pinhole is a port that is not protected by a firewall to allow a particular application to gain access to a service on a host in the network protected by the firewall.
