relay received topology updates to random neighbours instead of broadcast to all peers #120

Closed murali-reddy closed 5 years ago

murali-reddy commented 5 years ago

for relay received topology updates use relay to random neighbours instead of broadcast to all the peers

address the issue #116

in fully connected topology broadcast is not necessary as each peer learns the topology when connection from peer gets established to self
in non-fully connected topolgy relay to random neighbour is less effective compared to broadcast but eventully topology gossip data will be synced
