<p>What do all the <code>reachable: false</code>'s mean under each network? My node is connecting fine to other peers both in and out, I assume via IPv4 (since I didn't configure anything else special). Is my node reachable or not? Or does reachable mean something else in this context?</p>

<pre><code>  "networks": [
    {
      "name": "ipv4",
      "limited": false,
      "reachable": false,
      "proxy": "",
      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
    }, 
    {

      "limited": false,
      "reachable": false,

What do all the `reachable: false`'s mean under each network? My node is connecting fine to other peers both in and out, I assume via IPv4 (since I didn't configure anything else special). Is my node reachable or not? Or does reachable mean something else in this context?

```
  "networks": [
    {
      "name": "ipv4",
      "limited": false,
      "reachable": false,
      "proxy": "",
      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
    }, 
    {
      "name": "ipv6",
      "limited": false,
      "reachable": false,
      "proxy": "",
      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
    }, 
    {
      "name": "onion",
      "limited": false,
      "reachable": false,
      "proxy": "",
      "proxy_randomize_credentials": false
    }

```

```
"reachable": false

```

is an awkward means of saying the node is on a local network.
