 If you want to use it as an overlay network on top of e.g. the internet, then you can do so by adding the remote devices domain/address and port (as a string, e.g. `"1.2.3.4:5678"`) to the list of `Peers` in the configuration file.

+You can control whether or not it peers over TCP or UDP by adding `tcp://` or `udp://` to the start of the string, i.e. `"udp://1.2.3.4:5678"`.
+It is also possible to route outgoing TCP connections through a socks proxy using the syntax: `"socks://socksHost:socksPort/destHost:destPort"`.
 It is currently configured to accept incoming TCP and UDP connections.
 In the interest of testing the TCP machinery, it's set to create TCP connections for auto-peering (over link-local IPv6), and to use TCP by default if no transport is specified for a manually configured peer.
