My concerns for the bootstrap peer is whether RELOAD provide a mechanism to make sure the candidate bootstrap peer has a unrestrictive connectivity, i,e, having public address and no firewall or behind address-independent firewall. In my mind, a peer could know whether or not it is behind NAT with the help from a rendevous point which plays a anchor role and be on the public internet. The two candidate rendevous point is enrollment server and bootstrap server. > > David (as individual) > > On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 3:04 PM, Cullen Jennings > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > How does a node decide it should be a bootstrap peer.
