Peer discovery

ETSi discovers peers by scanning every IP address in your subnet on port 9090 in parallel async tasks. This typically completes within 1–3 seconds on a standard /24 subnet. Discovered peers are added to the address book immediately.

Gossip protocol

Every 10 seconds, ETSi selects a random known peer and sends it your complete address book as a JSON payload. The receiving peer merges this with its own state and responds in kind. State propagates to every node on the mesh within a few cycles.
