On OpenWRT you need to run these additional commands to configure Dnsmasq to resolved node IDs.
To add more nodes to the network repeat the last three steps for each new node and then configure a parent node for each node.
# file /etc/mcc/mcc.conf
Here x.x.x.x
is the address of the first node you have created.
Usually a parent node has public IP address but this is not required.
You can chain-link nodes to create multi-hop network.
Staex ensures global connectivity even if a child node can only "see" its parent but not the other nodes.
Don't forget to open port 9376 for UDP traffic on each node.
If everything went well your new nodes should be visible in the output of the following command on the parent node.
They will also be visible on Networks page in self-service portal.
