Oh, thanks, in my current case, I haven’t config “Address” parameter in A’s 
host config, is this will make A prohibited it listen on the tinc ports?

Question: 
1. if I config “Address” in A’s config, and even though A is in a private 
subnet, it might still possible for A to establish connection with X(X is 
public IP address)?
2. If there any parameter to disable the direct connection discovery, and only 
allow to through intermediate node?
