# Hyper-Yggdrasil
> Allow two [Yggdrasil](https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/) nodes to connect via [hyperdht](https://github.com/holepunchto/hyperdht).
- Yggdrasil is a research project trying to find a [scalable and egalitarian network routing scheme](https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/about.html).
- Hyper-Yggdrasil tries to add [hole punching](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_punching_(networking)) to the mix by connecting nodes via [Hyperswarm DHT](https://github.com/holepunchto/hyperdht).
This proof of concept works the following way:
```
01 | Yggdrasil instance no. 1
02 | 🡲 tcp://localhost-1
03 | 🡲 NodeJS: `net` ⇿ `hyperdht`
04 | 🡲 INTERNET
05 | 🡰 NodeJS: `hyperdht` ⇿ `net`
06 | 🡰 tcp://localhost-2
07 | 🡰 Yggdrasil instance no. 2
```
## Screencast
It shows:
1. Two NodeJS scripts are connected via HyperDHT. They also open a local TCP ports.
2. Yggdrasil is started connected to the local HyperDHT server/client via TCP.
3. IPv6 pings are sent via Yggdrasil.
4. Encrypted traffic is observed, pings succeed.
