This option may not work on all platforms.
+@cindex Broadcast
+@item Broadcast = <yes | no> (yes) [experimental]
+When disabled, tinc will drop all broadcast and multicast packets, in both router and switch mode.
+
@cindex ConnectTo
@item ConnectTo = <@var{name}>
Specifies which other tinc daemon to connect to on startup.
tinc won't try to connect to other daemons at all,
and will instead just listen for incoming connections.
+@cindex DecrementTTL
+@item DecrementTTL = <yes | no> (yes)
+When enabled, tinc will decrement the Time To Live field in IPv4 packets, or the Hop Limit field in IPv6 packets,
+before forwarding a received packet to the virtual network device or to another node,
+and will drop packets that have a TTL value of zero,
+in which case it will send an ICMP Time Exceeded packet back.
+
@cindex Device
@item Device = <@var{device}> (@file{/dev/tap0}, @file{/dev/net/tun} or other depending on platform)
The virtual network device to use.
Under Windows, this variable is used to select which network interface will be used.
If you specified a Device, this variable is almost always already correctly set.
+@cindex LocalDiscovery
+@item LocalDiscovery = <yes | no> (no) [experimental]
+When enabled, tinc will try to detect peers that are on the same local network.
+This will allow direct communication using LAN addresses, even if both peers are behind a NAT
+and they only ConnectTo a third node outside the NAT,
+which normally would prevent the peers from learning each other's LAN address.
+
+Currently, local discovery is implemented by sending broadcast packets to the LAN during path MTU discovery.
+This feature may not work in all possible situations.
+
@cindex Mode
@item Mode = <router|switch|hub> (router)
This option selects the way packets are routed to other daemons.
but will default to the configuration directory (you can use the -c or -n option
in combination with -K). After that, tinc will quit.
+@item -o, --option=[@var{HOST}.]@var{KEY}=@var{VALUE}
+Without specifying a @var{HOST}, this will set server configuration variable @var{KEY} to @var{VALUE}.
+If specified as @var{HOST}.@var{KEY}=@var{VALUE},
+this will set the host configuration variable @var{KEY} of the host named @var{HOST} to @var{VALUE}.
+This option can be used more than once to specify multiple configuration variables.
+
@item -L, --mlock
Lock tinc into main memory.
This will prevent sensitive data like shared private keys to be written to the system swap files/partitions.
