# Abstract
This document extends the [11/WAKU2-RELAY](/spec/11/), specifying Waku Tor Push,
which allows nodes to push messages via Tor into the Waku relay network.
Waku Tor Push builds on [46/GOSSIPSUB-TOR-PUSH](/spec/46).
**Protocol identifier**: /vac/waku/relay/2.0.0
Note: Waku Tor Push does not have a dedicated protocol identifier.
It uses the same identifier as Waku relay.
This allows Waku relay nodes that are oblivious to Tor Push to process messages received via Tor Push.
# Functional Operation
In its current version, Waku Tor Push corresponds to [46/GOSSIPSUB-TOR-PUSH](/spec/46)
applied to [11/WAKU2-RELAY](/spec/11/),
instead of [libp2p gossipsub](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/blob/master/pubsub/gossipsub/README.md).
