Is there a native way to provide DTLS support for UDP sockets in .NET?

edit by native I mean those that are in .NET framework out-of-the-box.

Our SecureBlackbox product provides client-side and server-side components for DTLS.

  • Thanks, Eugene. I know it. That's why I asked for native ways. – Primary Key Sep 05 '10 at 20:15
  • Another reason to ask is that I would pretty much enjoy the kind of interface SslStream offers. – Primary Key Sep 05 '10 at 20:18
  • I doubt that you will find anything - DTLS is quite specific and not very popular thing. Also, SslStream is a stream class, and turning UDP (DTLS-secured or not) into stream is a layer adds certain business logic, it's not just replace an interface and you are done. – Eugene Mayevski 'Callback Sep 05 '10 at 20:45
  • Yes, I understand this. By interface I meant being able to layer encryption on top of any kind of stream. Such underlying stream could "consist" of encrypted packets sent via UDP from a certain endpoint. – Primary Key Sep 05 '10 at 21:12
  • Actually, this is something i could use as well. Does the C# implementation of SSLStream use UDP or TCP 'under the hood'? Does anyone know if there is an alternative FULLY-MANAGED udp tunnelling library? – Nicholas Terry Jan 15 '14 at 17:24
  • @nterry asking unrelated questions in comments is a bad idea for StackOverflow - this is not a forum and nobody will see your questions in the comment to some old topic. You are welcome to post questions as, emm, new questions here, and get answers that way. – Eugene Mayevski 'Callback Jan 15 '14 at 17:43
