The value prop is that dumbpipe handles encryption, reconnection, UPnP, hole punching, relays, etc. It's not something I could easily replicate with netcat, for example.

In practice, the "ticket" provided by dumbpipe contains your machine's IP and port information. So I believe two machines could connect without any need for discovery infra, in situations that use tickets. (And have UPnP enabled or something.)

AFAIK no MAC addresses are involved. It assigns you a new IP address, internal to the network, a bit like a VPN.
