Hi Ryan,

Sorry for the delayed response. The high volume and churn of
development recently has gotten me a bit behind on the mail queue and
rather confused.

If I understood you correctly, you're looking at this situation: Peer
A connects to Peer S. Peer B connects to Peer S. A wants to talk to B,
through S. In this case, the allowed-ips of S on A lists B's internal
IP, and the allowed-ips of S on B lists A's internal IP address. In
other words, you have A/B state that "I trust S to send me the traffic
of B/A."

Does this answer your question?

Regards,
Jason
