Changes
Changed
- macOS FIPS private-mesh bulk traffic now uses a smaller queue and UDP send
buffer window to keep endpoint latency bounded while preserving the measured coalescing behavior.
Fixed
- FIPS participant liveness now prefers recent authenticated participant
traffic over connected endpoint-link snapshots, so stale peers are reported accurately instead of appearing healthy through a lingering transport link.
- The daemon now restarts the embedded FIPS private mesh, with cooldown, when
participant traffic stops while endpoint links remain connected, helping recover stale participant paths automatically.
