Re: [tor-relays] "large number of connections to other relays" - What should I do?

I noticed this yesterday when setting up a new node.

It's because Tor establishes a bunch of internal circuits for testing and stability when you first start it up so it can measure it and such.

Mine went away after about 24 hours.

Hi

I'm running a new non-exit relay on my server which has a shared address, and I often see the following message in my log file:

Your relay has a very large number of connections to other relays. Is your outbound address the same as your relay address?

Do I have to worry about that? If the answer is yes, what should I do?
