The choice of encryption schemes that can be applied to payload has recently been enhanced. Please have
a look at [Crypto description](doc/Crypto.md) for a quick comparison chart to help make a choice. n2n edge nodes use
Twofish encryption by default for compatibility reasons with existing versions. Other ciphers can be chosen
using the `-A_` option.
AES encryption by default. Other ciphers can be chosen using the `-A_` option.
A benchmark of the encryption methods is available when compiled from source with `tools/n2n-benchmark`.
