About:
Stuntman is a high-performance STUN (Session Traversal Utilities for NAT) server and client implementation. It enables applications to discover their public IP address and port mappings through NAT devices, which is essential for establishing peer-to-peer connections in VoIP and real-time communication systems.

Key Features:

RFC 5389 compliant STUN server and client
Supports both UDP and TCP transport
High-performance C++ implementation
Includes test vectors for validation
Command-line client tool included

Use Cases:

NAT traversal for VoIP and video conferencing applications
Testing STUN functionality in network infrastructure
Determining public IP addresses for peer-to-peer connections
Debugging NAT behavior in network setups

Alternatives:

coturn – More feature-rich with TURN support, but heavier dependency footprint
pystun3 – Python-based alternative, easier to modify but less performant
