Transports in Waku

Waku v2 is built in top of libp2p, and like libp2p it strives to be transport agnostic. We define a set of recommended transports in order to achieve a baseline of interoperability between clients.

This section describes these recommended transports:

  • Waku nodes uses TCP to communicate by default. A service node should be using TCP to listen to, and connect to other nodes.
  • For browser environments, secure websocket is used. Service nodes are encouraged to setup a SSL certificate to enable incoming connections from browser and serve them.
  • Other protocols such as WebRTC, WebTransport and QUIC have been studied.
