dn42 is a decentralized peer-to-peer network built using VPNs and software/hardware BGP routers.
While other darknets try to establish anonymity for their participants, that is not what dn42 aims for. It is a network to explore routing technologies used in the Internet and tries to establish direct non-NAT-ed connections between the members.
