Thank you, that is very helpful. And actually I do have a few further questions regarding this:
1. This weight is not the one specified in Subnet, this should be something related to the host, where can I manually configure this? 2. The weight value is ONLY take round trip latency as the measurement, or including CPU power and other factors into consideration? 3. I don't know how this Weight named, but let's say it Path-weight; So in 1.1, tinc will first evaluate Subnet-weight, and if certain route have the same Subnet-weight, they will compare the Path-weight for deciding which path to forward(if direct not possible, and same hops to the destination)? 4. When will 1.1 been released as official version?
