### Learning from [Open Coms meetup at xhain](https://x-hain.de/en/calendar/#content) on `07.02.2025`
[Source routing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_routing) could be worth learning about once TollGate supports multi WAN.
* My understanding: source routing lets users specify which gateway to use when they have a choice between a fast gateway and a cheap gateway for instance.
* Questions:
* what role does identity play in source routing?
* Does a user need to know the path or is it good enough to choose between various quantifiable options: like fast vs cheap?
There is [a paper](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3529097) that describes something between remyers (nprofile…hxfy)'s [LOT49](https://github.com/global-mesh-labs/lot49) and TollGate (nprofile…3stq).
