Confusion about peers.

[jordaniac89]

In this example, I'm confused about what happens when you write a message to a peer in the broadcast function. Is there code behind the ports that handles the message? Or in this example, does the message just fall off?

The broadcast function send the given message to every peer the node knows about:

The receiving peer handles the sent message using code:
