通訊方式 Ares采用TCP通訊方式，登陸時連接不同端口的多個服務器，Ares還會通過UDP來驗證服務器的狀態和同步信息，并且可以通過服務器進入聊天室并和 其他用戶在線聊天（TCP方式，無固定端口）。Ares支持SOCK4、SOCK5代理以及使用多重代理服務器。

如何封堵Ares？ 由于Ares端口是隨機的不固定的，所以已經不能通過傳統的封堵端口的方式來限制Ares的使用。 我們建議您可以采用以下兩種方式來管理Ares： 1). 采用IP封堵的方式，把發現的Ares的登陸IP全部封堵掉。（由于服務器IP很多，這種方法效果不是很有效） 2). 使用專用的上網監控軟件，專業的上網監控軟件可以對網絡數據進行分析過濾，從中篩選出Ares通訊數據，進而封堵掉該鏈接實現監控。
