Cannot enable 'outgoing' multilink without 'incoming' multilink #1533

Open fuzzypixelz opened 4 days ago

fuzzypixelz commented 4 days ago

In order for a peer to establish multiple links to a router, it needs to set transport/unicast/multilink to a value > 1. This means that said peer would also be accepting multiple links from other peers.

Thus there is no way to enable multilink for 'outgoing' connections without inadvertently doing so for 'incoming' connections.

A possible solution is configuring transport/unicast/multilink like so:

{
  "enabled": true,
  "max_incoming_links": 1,
  "max_outgoing_links": 10,
}

As far as I recall, no limitations are in place for outgoing links. So a peer can always open as many links it wants. The limit is on the incoming links.
