XMPP and libjingle connection using IP address

Question

I am developing a P2P application where UserA knows UserB's IP address and request a connection. It is not possible to log-in to any Google Talk or similar account, we have to use just the IP address.

Then, is it true that I cannot use XMPP API or libjingle? (it looks like it requires a "login process"). Any API or Java library suggested to do it?

THANKS

If you're developing a web-based application, browser security is going to prevent you from making a direct peer-to-peer connection between two clients.

You can use the App Engine Channel API to handle real-time communication between two clients; using this, both clients will connect to the App Engine server to exchange messages.
