Subject: Send Packet to component in other domain
Is that possible sending packet to component in other domain ?

yes, absolutely no problem. Components normally always run on sub-domains like mediarelay.jakwt2 when jakwt2 is the xmpp domain of your server.

XMPP components communicate over a Tcp stream to each other. similar like the client to server stream.
So components can run on different physical server machines and different networks, as long as your firewalls are configured correctly and they can talk to each other over the network. Also different server jakwt1 and jakwt2 talk to each other and route packets when they are setup correctly.

okay. that's good to know..

so every node from one server can talk to node from different server
as long as both server are connected ?

even the internal component can send a packet to internal component in another server ?

yes and when the server admin allows this.

yes, all addressable XMPP nodes can talk to each other when they are federated. When you don't want that one of your components can be reached from every XMPP node you can restrict the access pretty easy.
