Compatibility

This server is fully compatible with existing GGPO clients and the official GGPOFBA emulator, however if UDP hole punching is enabled the GGPOFBA emulator needs to be proxyied through a wrapper. UDP hole punching is a popular NAT traversal technique that allows to connect two players without having to forward ports on the router, making the setup easier.
