Characteristics of Multiple Chained Relay(compared with IP Tunneling technique)

• No Fragmentation vulnerability

  • IP tunneling technique (en/decapsulation) change the packet size.It has Fragmentation vulnerability
  • SOCKS mechanism dose NOT change the packet size.

• No Hop limit (metric number) problem

  • The tunneling technique creates one virtual connections over the dynamically routed and configured networks. Real hop limit (metric number) information is hidden
  • SOCKS mechanism is composed of real connections.Real hop limit (metric number) information is NOT hidden

• Well-authenticated relay by the native SOCKS methods
