# LokiNet
LokiNet is the reference implementation of LLARP (low latency anonymous routing protocol), a layer 3 onion routing protocol.
You can learn more about the high level design of LLARP [here](doc/high-level.txt)
<<<<<<< Updated upstream
And you can read the LLARP protocol specification [here](doc/proto_v0.txt)

## Building
![build status](https://gitlab.com/lokiproject/loki-network/badges/master/pipeline.svg "build status")
If you don't have libsodium 1.0.16 or higher use the [lokinet builder](https://github.com/loki-project/lokinet-builder) repo.
Otherwise:
$ sudo apt install git libcap-dev build-essential ninja-build cmake libsodium-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network
$ cd loki-network
$ make
## Usage
### Windows
Windows only supports client mode so you run `lokinet.exe` and that's it.
### Linux
Client mode:
For simple testing do:
$ lokinet
On systemd based distros you can persist it in the background:
# systemctl enable --now lokinet-client
Relay mode:
you can participate as a relay node trivially (for now).
On systemd based linux distros do:
# systemctl enable --now lokinet-relay
Alternatively:
# mkdir /usr/local/lokinet
# cd /usr/local/lokinet
# lokinet -g /usr/local/lokinet/daemon.ini
# lokinet /usr/local/lokinet/daemon.ini
