You'll need to modify your networking code to use ISteamNetworkingSockets for connectivity.
(NOTE: At this time, only IPv4 is supported, but IPv6 support is planned.) However, this IP can be dynamic, and it will never be revealed to players.
Your server will still need a public IP, so that it can receive traffic from relays.
Any place where clients see the IP address of your server will need to be changed to use a different identifier instead, probably the server SteamID.
General Requirements for Dedicated ServersIn order to run dedicated servers behind SDR, you'll need to do the following: The remainder of this document applies to dedicated servers. And if you don't ship on Steam, feel free to use the opensource version of the API for whatever you want.įor peer-to-peer traffic, all you need to do to take advantage of SDR is to use APIs such as ISteamNetworkingSockets::CreateListenSocketP2P and ISteamNetworkingSockets::ConnectP2P. As long as you ship your game on Steam and meet some other reasonable requirements, you can access the Steam Datagram Relay for players on other platforms or stores! Please contact us for the relevant SDKs and to talk about the fine print. This is a cross platform service A Networking API and DDoS solution for a cross-platform game is useless if it only works on one platform. In both cases, you will need to use the ISteamNetworkingSockets interface. This relay network can be used for both peer-to-peer traffic and dedicated servers. Furthermore, for a surprisingly high number of players, we can also find a faster route through our network, which actually improves player ping times. All traffic you receive is authenticated, encrypted, and rate-limited. Relaying the traffic protects your servers and players from DoS attack, because IP addresses are never revealed. Using our APIs, you can not only carry your game traffic over the Valve backbone that is dedicated for game content, you also gain access to our network of relays.
