Abstract

A relay server is located outside a firewall and provides access to a server inside the firewall. Both the server and a client (the client is outside the firewall) initiate a connection with the relay server. The relay server then sets up a connection between the server and client, to thereby enable the server and client to communicate. Such communication is enabled without needing an inbound port in the firewall, thereby enhancing security.
