SOCKS implementation for the SOHO 6 Wireless
The SOHO 6 Wireless functions as a SOCKS network proxy server.
An application that uses more than one socket connection and
implements the SOCKS version 5 protocol can communicate
through the SOHO 6 Wireless. SOCKS supplies a secure, two-way
communication channel between a computer on the external
network and a computer on the trusted network. To use a SOCKS-
compatible application, configure the application with the
necessary information about the SOHO 6 Wireless.
The SOHO 6 Wireless supports SOCKS version 5 only. The
SOHO 6 Wireless does not support authentication or DNS
(Domain Name System) resolution.
