Transparent

Refers to a connexion (TCP) or data stream (UDP) sent by a client directly to a server, in which the client is unaware of the intervening gateway. The opposite of non-transparent. Transparent access is routinely used for outbound traffic so that clients are unaware of the intervening gateway. This is sometimes referred to as server-side transparency, because the true server, and not the gateway, is the target of the connection.
