Why host-up script triggered even not ConnectTo?

[Narcissus Emi]

Indeed it depends, tinc will have a port listening for incoming
connections(both tcp and udp), if A have exposed its listening ports, a
direct connection will be tried to build between the nodes, otherwise it
will go from the intermediate node.
