Thank you so much for that link, @hector! It was exactly what I needed.

I read through the thread [How to setup V1 Relay in the new config](https://discuss.ipfs.tech/t/how-to-setup-v1-relay-in-the-new-config/14019), and I was using a very similar network configuration as @susarlanikhilesh: The two nodes I wanted to connect were behind an unknown level of firewalls with no visibility into their network configuration. I needed a way to tunnel through any firewalls and pass files between the nodes. I followed the instructions carefully, but in my tests, hole punching was not successful and I was not able to get the two nodes to connect to one another directly. Reverting to a v1 Relay was my only option.

I was able to setup libp2p-relay-daemon as a V1 relay using this config:

```auto
{
  "RelayV2": {
    "Enabled": false
  },
  "RelayV1": {
    "Enabled": true
  },
  "Network": {
    "ListenAddrs": [
        "/ip4/0.0.0.0/udp/4002/quic",
        "/ip6/::/udp/4002/quic",
        "/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/4002",
        "/ip6/::/tcp/4002",
        "/ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/4003/ws",
        "/ip6/::/tcp/4003/ws"
    ]
  },
  "Daemon": {
    "PprofPort": 6061
  }
}

```

Also a note for people who try this: You need to install Go v1.17.12. The project will not install with the current version of Go (v1.18.4).
