### Node to HostCache
|
||||
|
||||
Nodes send a "Ping" message to the hostcache, enriched with a boolean "leaf" field indicating whether the node is a leaf or not:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{
|
||||
type: "Ping",
|
||||
version: 1,
|
||||
leaf: true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### HostCache to Node
|
||||
|
||||
The HostCache replies with a "Pong" message.
