<brief_description>
Helper class to implement a DTLS server.
</brief_description>
<description>
This class is used to store the state of a DTLS server. Upon [method setup] it converts connected [PacketPeerUDP] to [PacketPeerDTLS] accepting them via [method take_connection] as DTLS clients. Under the hood, this class is used to store the DTLS state and cookies of the server. The reason of why the state and cookies are needed is outside of the scope of this documentation.
Below a small example of how to use it:
[codeblock]
# server.gd
extends Node
var dtls := DTLSServer.new()
var server := UDPServer.new()
var peers = []
func _ready():
server.listen(4242)
var key = load("key.key") # Your private key.
var cert = load("cert.crt") # Your X509 certificate.
dtls.setup(key, cert)
func _process(delta):
while server.is_connection_available():
var peer : PacketPeerUDP = server.take_connection()
var dtls_peer : PacketPeerDTLS = dtls.take_connection(peer)
if dtls_peer.get_status() != PacketPeerDTLS.STATUS_HANDSHAKING:
continue # It is normal that 50% of the connections fails due to cookie exchange.
print("Peer connected!")
peers.append(dtls_peer)
for p in peers:
p.poll() # Must poll to update the state.
if p.get_status() == PacketPeerDTLS.STATUS_CONNECTED:
while p.get_available_packet_count() > 0:
print("Received message from client: %s" % p.get_packet().get_string_from_utf8())
p.put_packet("Hello DTLS client".to_utf8())
[/codeblock]
[codeblock]
# client.gd
extends Node
var dtls := PacketPeerDTLS.new()
var udp := PacketPeerUDP.new()
var connected = false
func _ready():
udp.connect_to_host("127.0.0.1", 4242)
dtls.connect_to_peer(udp, false) # Use true in production for certificate validation!
func _process(delta):
dtls.poll()
if dtls.get_status() == PacketPeerDTLS.STATUS_CONNECTED:
if !connected:
# Try to contact server
dtls.put_packet("The answer is... 42!".to_utf8())
while dtls.get_available_packet_count() > 0:
print("Connected: %s" % dtls.get_packet().get_string_from_utf8())
connected = true

Connects a [code]peer[/code] beginning the DTLS handshake using the underlying [PacketPeerUDP] which must be connected (see [method PacketPeerUDP.connect_to_host]).

Calling this method connects this UDP peer to the given [code]host[/code]/[code]port[/code] pair. UDP is in reality connectionless, so this option only means that incoming packets from different addresses are automatically discarded, and that outgoing packets are always sent to the connected address (future calls to [method set_dest_address] are not allowed). This method does not send any data to the remote peer, to do that, use [method PacketPeer.put_var] or [method PacketPeer.put_packet] as usual. See also [UDPServer].
Note: Connecting to the remote peer does not help to protect from malicious attacks like IP spoofing, etc. Think about using an encryption technique like SSL or DTLS if you feel like your application is transfering sensitive information.

When enabled, the client or server created by this peer, will use [PacketPeerDTLS] instead of raw UDP sockets for communicating with the remote peer. This will make the communication encrypted with DTLS at the cost of higher resource usage and potentially larger packet size.
Note: When creating a DTLS server, make sure you setup the key/certificate pair via [method set_dtls_key] and [method set_dtls_certificate]. For DTLS clients, have a look at the [member dtls_verify] option, and configure the certificate accordingly via [method set_dtls_certificate].
