### How It Works
DcRouter acts purely as an **orchestrator** — it doesn't implement protocols itself. Instead, it wires together best-in-class packages for each protocol:
1. **On `start()`**: DcRouter initializes OpsServer (port 3000), then spins up SmartProxy, smartmta, SmartDNS, and SmartRadius based on which configs are provided.
2. **During operation**: Each service handles its own protocol independently. SmartProxy uses a Rust-powered engine for maximum throughput. smartmta uses a hybrid TypeScript + Rust architecture for reliable email delivery.
3. **On `stop()`**: All services are gracefully shut down in reverse order.
### Rust-Powered Architecture
DcRouter itself is a pure TypeScript orchestrator, but three of its core sub-components ship with **compiled Rust binaries** for performance-critical paths. At runtime each package detects the platform, unpacks the correct binary, and communicates with TypeScript over IPC/FFI — so you get the ergonomics of TypeScript with the throughput of native code.
| Component | Rust Binary | What It Handles |
|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
| **SmartProxy** | `smartproxy-bin` | All TCP/TLS/HTTP proxy networking, NFTables integration, connection metrics |
| **smartmta** | `mailer-bin` | SMTP server + client, DKIM/SPF/DMARC, content scanning, IP reputation |
| **SmartDNS** | `smartdns-bin` | DNS server (UDP + DNS-over-HTTPS), DNSSEC, DNS client resolution |
| **SmartRadius** | — | Pure TypeScript (no Rust component) |

The email system is built around the **UnifiedEmailServer**, which handles SMTP sessions, route matching, delivery queuing, DKIM signing, and all email processing in a single unified component.
The email system is powered by [`@push.rocks/smartmta`](https://code.foss.global/push.rocks/smartmta), a TypeScript + Rust hybrid MTA. DcRouter configures and orchestrates smartmta's **UnifiedEmailServer**, which handles SMTP sessions, route matching, delivery queuing, DKIM signing, and all email processing.
