§Remote Transport Layer

This file is part of the Network Protocol project.

It defines the remote transport layer for network communication, including TCP-based client-server interactions.

The remote transport layer is responsible for handling the actual data transmission between nodes in a network, ensuring that packets are sent and received correctly.

It abstracts the underlying network details, allowing higher-level protocol logic to focus on message routing and processing.

The remote transport layer is designed to be modular and extensible, supporting various transport mechanisms such as TCP, UDP, and custom protocols.

§Responsibilities

  • Send and receive packets over the network
  • Handle connection management
  • Provide a unified interface for different transport protocols

This module is essential for processing protocol packets in a networked environment, ensuring correct parsing and serialization.

It is designed to be efficient, minimal, and easy to integrate into the protocol layer.

Functions§

connect
Connect to a remote server and return the framed transport
start_server
Starts a TCP server at the given address
