Hi all,

I would like to prevent my node's IP being learned by
other nodes. Depite if someone uses some sort of
network trace tool, is it true that this can be done
by simply turning off the informWrite option and make
my node transient?

Does this mean that my node will never get data
request from other nodes? Since no one knows my IP
address.


Another question that is somehow related to my
question.

Suppose that there are four nodes with relationship as

A--B--C
   |---D
A has the informWrite turned off and transient set to
true. A is requesting a resource that C has. Therefore
it asks B and B gets the resource from C. B will store
the IP address of C as the reference of the resource.
Since B knows that it sends the resource back to A (
therefore it knows that A may have the resource), is
there any chance for B to also store A as the
reference to the resource in its DataStore? If later
on D requests the very same resource, will B (suppose
it does not have the cache) forward the request to C
or to A?

Thanks for any help.
