n2n is an open source
VPN app utilising peer-to-peer
architecture for network membership and routing.
Unlike many other VPN programs, n2n can also connect computers which reside behind NAT routers. These connections are set up with help from a third computer that both computers can reach. This computer, called a supernode, can then route the information between NATed nodes.[2]
It is free software licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v3.[3]
Turbo VPN is a custom
Windows server/client implementation of n2n.[citation needed
