All,

I am planning to implement DTLS, I would like to have this in nodejs core and not as a npm module.

It may be like http://nodejs.org/api/all.html#all_tls_ssl, but instead of TCP it will be over UDP

This function is mainly used now in Chrome webRTC, the goal is to offer a DTLS support and permit to create node as web AS and to also to create data channel server side.

I would like to return on this on it prior any investment on the beast.

Thanks

We can put DTLS on the roadmap for v0.14 / v1.0 if there is demand for
it. Not many people have asked for it so far but it's been brought up
once or twice.

If you want to work on it, then please join #libuv on irc.freenode.org
- that's where the node.js committers hang out - to discuss the
details.

DTLS might be interesting for Internet of Things applications, mainly for securing CoAP communications.
The MQTT driver has created some momentum behind Node.js for these kind of applications, and CoAP might do the same.
I have recently written a node library for it https://github.com/mcollina/node-coap.

Thanks for the support!

Add more details on your stack trace, or report to node_dtls package the issue.

DTLS support required in COAP Application.
But not succeeded to install DTLS Package with COAP for implementation.

More Info::

I tried to install Node_DTLS package, but I'm getting "open SSL" errors and "node-gyp build error".

How can I resolve these errors.

I tried in forums for installation of DTLS package, but I couldn't find any helpful information.

Node version 4.0.x
Npm version 2.4.x

Ubuntu Linux OS

Appreciate if any once provide helpful information 

thanks
Raja
