Protocol2
Protocol2 is a transport-oriented communication protocol designed to provide reliable, low-latency data transfer over heterogeneous networks. It targets applications requiring strong security, flexible routing, and scalable multiplexing, and serves as an evolution of Protocol1 in environments where modern security and performance requirements exceed those of older protocols.
The protocol employs a layered design with a dedicated session layer on top of a generic transport,
Compatibility and interoperability are addressed through a bridge mode that allows protocol2 gateways to interact with
Implementations and usage: Several open-source implementations exist in C, Rust, and Go. Protocol2 has seen adoption
History: Protocol2 was proposed by a standards-working group within a standards organization in 2022–2024, with initial
