Restricting a Relayer

Learn about the basics of Avalanche.

In this segment, we'll delve into the mechanisms of restricting relayers for transmitting messages across Subnets. While the security in AWM and Teleporter doesn't rely at all on the Relayer, there might be some reasons why you would want to restrict the delivery of the message to certain Relayers.

The more obvious one is when you run your own Relayer, and don't want to incentivize any other to ensure your message gets to the destination. On following sections you will learn how to run your own Relayer so you can restrict the messages to your own.

What You Will Learn
