• reply attack detection

Sphinx Mix Network Cryptographic Packet Format Specification

Sphinx: A Compact and Provably Secure Mix Format

Modules

client	Client-side Sphinx library functions
commands	Sphinx routing commands
constants	The Sphinx packet geometry is parameterization.
error	Sphinx error types.
server	an excerpt from Sphinx Mix Network Cryptographic Packet Format Specification: """ An implementation of the server-side of Sphinx, packet processing. Mix nodes process incoming packets first by performing the Sphinx Packet Unwrap operation to authenticate and decrypt the packet, and if applicable prepare the packet to be forwarded to the next node.
