Application Support

One of the central goals of ROAM is to support legacy applications. Ideally, this would allow us to transparently run existing applications on top of ROAM. In this section, we first describe how $i3$can support native applications, and then present our solution for legacy applications.

Figure: Example of setting up a connection via private triggers $id_a$ and $id_b$ between two hosts $A$ and $B$. $id_p$ is $B$'s public trigger.
