Subject: Move responsibility for local discovery to UDP discovery.
X-Git-Tag: release-1.1pre12~243
X-Git-Url: https://tinc-vpn.org/git/browse?a=commitdiff_plain;h=88026f27715774a7647c109ba5594068f0ba56af;p=tinc

Move responsibility for local discovery to UDP discovery.

Since UDP discovery is the place where UDP feasibility is checked, it
makes sense to test for local connectivity as well. This was previously
done as part of PMTU discovery.
