 If you don't agree nor understand the above warnings, do not use any of VPN Gate Academic Experiment Service functions.
 VPN Gate is a research project for just academic purpose only. VPN Gate was developed as a plug-in for SoftEther VPN and UT-VPN. However, all parts of VPN Gate were developed on this research project at University of Tsukuba. Any parts of VPN Gate are not developed by SoftEther Corporation. The VPN Gate Research Project is not a subject to be led, operated, promoted nor guaranteed by SoftEther Corporation.
 
+5.13. The P2P Relay Function in the VPN Gate Client to strengthen the capability of circumvention of censorship firewalls
+VPN Gate Clients, which are published since January 2015, include the P2P Relay Function. The P2P Relay Function is implemented in order to strengthen the capability of circumvention of censorship firewalls. If the P2P Relay Function in your VPN Gate Client is enabled, then the P2P Relay Function will accept the incoming VPN connections from the VPN Gate users, which are located on mainly same regions around you, and will provide the relay function to the external remote VPN Gate Servers, which are hosted by third parties in the free Internet environment. This P2P Relay Function never provides the shared NAT functions nor replaces the outgoing IP address of the VPN Gate users to your IP addresses because this P2P Relay Function only provides the "reflection service" (hair-pin relaying), relaying from incoming VPN Gate users to an external VPN Gate Server. In this situation, VPN tunnels via your P2P Relay Function will be finally terminated on the external VPN Gate Server, not your VPN Gate Client. However, the VPN Gate Server as the final destination will record your IP address as the source IP address of VPN tunnels which will be initiated by your P2P Relay Function. Additionally, user packets which are transmitted via your P2P Relay Function will be recorded on your computer as packet logs as described on the section 5.8. After you installed the VPN Gate Client, and if the P2P Relay Function will be enabled automatically, then all matters on the 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 and 5.12 sections will be applied to you and your computer, as same to the situation when you enabled the VPN Gate Service (the VPN Gate Server function). If your P2P Function is enabled, then your computer's IP address and the default operator's name which is described on the section 5.5 will be listed on the VPN Gate Server List which is provided by the VPN Gate Project. You can change these strings by editing the "vpn_gate_relay.config" file manually. Note that you need to stop the VPN Client service before editing it. The VPN Gate Client will automatically enable the P2P Relay Function on your computer if the VPN Gate Client detects that your computer might be located in regions where there are existing censorship firewalls. If you want to disable the P2P Relay Function, you must set the "DisableRelayServer" flag to "true" on the "vpn_client.config" file which is the configuration file of the VPN Client. Note that you need to stop the VPN Client service before editing it. The VPN Gate Client does not recognize the particular regulation of your country or your region. The VPN Gate Client activates the P2P Relay Function even if your country or your region has the law to restrict running P2P relay functions. Therefore, in such a case, you must disable the P2P Relay Function on the VPN Gate Client manually by setting the "DisableRelayServer" flag if you reside in such a restricted area, in your own responsibility.
