With Owl TPTS, TCP client establishes a “handshake” with TCP server on the Send-only machine. TCP/IP address information is stripped from the incoming packets, with packet payload transferred to the Receive-only machine. The receiving machine establishes a TCP handshake with its intended recipient and completes the transfer. In Web Server language, the Owl application may be thought of as a one-way proxy. For maximum security, no IP routing information is passed across the one-way link.
