This configuration creates a hub-and-spoke network with a single hub node H, and spoke nodes A, B, and C. A web client is exposed at each spoke. Each spoke also responds to all incoming queries by acting as an adapter.

This configuration creates a hub-and-spoke network with a single hub node H, and spoke nodes A, B, and C, with corresponding reduction in firewall openings and cert exchanges required compared to a fully-meshed network, while allowing nodes to expose their own web clients for political, branding, or other purposes.
