• supports multiple networks per node
• connect_to can be either configured manually or extracted using node-search
• you can run router and switch mode, the latter is for unicast/multicast enabled networks

All you need is deploying this cookbook on several nodes while using the same network name - the connection between those nodes (hosts)
will be configured automatically (published hosts/ with public keys)

Tests

You can run the test using kitchen

# vagrant basesed 
chef exec bundle exec kitchen test

# dokken based
export KITCHEN_YAML=.kitchen.dokken.yml
chef exec bundle exec kitchen test

# dokken based - just the default suite
export KITCHEN_YAML=.kitchen.dokken.yml
chef exec bundle exec kitchen test default

# docker based
export KITCHEN_YAML=.kitchen.docker.yml
chef exec bundle exec kitchen test           

There are to test suites, default for testing anything with router mode and switch to ensure we can set the mode properly/
