342The special value C<1> allows other hosts to route through the router
343host, but they will never route through it by default. The value C<0>
344disables routing. The idea behind this is that some hosts can, if
345required, bump the C<router-priority> setting to higher than C<1> in their
346local config to route through specific hosts. If C<router-priority> is
347C<0>, then routing will be refused, so C<1> serves as a "enable, but do
348not use by default" switch.
