# TcpProxy Module

This module exposes the `TcpProxyClient` and the `TcpProxyServer` which can be used to proxy traffic through the Mixnet in a way that is more familiar to developers than the methods exposed by the [`Mixnet` module](./mxinet).

Both `Client` and `Server` are intended to be initialised and then run in a background thread, exposing a configurable `localhost` socket which developers can read/write/stream to without having to worry about the [message-based](../concepts/messages) nature of sending and receiving traffic to/from the Mixnet.
