The tsshd works like mosh-server, while the tssh --udp works like mosh.

• Low Latency ( based on QUIC / KCP )

• Port Forwarding ( same as openssh, includes ssh agent forwarding and X11 forwarding )

• [TODO] Connection Migration ( supports network switching and reconnection, depends on quic-go#234 )

1. Install tssh on the client ( the user's machine ).

2. Install tsshd on the server ( the remote host ).

3. Use tssh --udp to login to the server. Configure as follows to omit --udp:

   Host xxx
       #!! UdpMode yes
       #!! TsshdPath ~/go/bin/tsshd
   

• The tssh plays the role of ssh on the client side, and the tsshd plays the role of sshd on the server side.

• The tssh will first login to the server normally as an ssh client, and then run a new tsshd process on the server.

• The tsshd process listens on a random udp port between 61000 and 62000, and sends its port number and a secret key back to the tssh process over the ssh channel. The ssh connection is then shut down, and the tssh process communicates with the tsshd process over udp.

• The tsshd supports QUIC protocol and KCP protocol (the default is QUIC), which can be specified on the command line (such as -oUdpMode=KCP), or configured as follows:

  Host xxx
      #!! UdpMode KCP
