ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus for implementing peer-to-peer relay. In one implementation, a peer-to-peer relay network includes: a plurality of N peer systems; wherein each peer system is connected to a number of other peer systems that is less than or equal to a connection limit, said connection limit is greater than or equal to 2, said connection limit is less than or equal to N−2, and each peer system is configured to relay data to peer systems connected to that peer system according to a set of one or more relay rules.
