This is great!
Thank you very much.
Let me another question. I have 2 services sock5 and element, they are both on the same machine. And I have 2 zrok controllers on ovh29 and dc67. I have noticed that sock5 service picks up the right terminator (ovh29), but element picks up the wrong one dc67 (miles away from the the host)
Now I have the following circuits for element's flow: ovh76-> dc67 instead of ovh76-> ovh29. Well because the terminator for the service is wrong.
It is certainly because I made a mistake by setting ZROK_API_ENDPOINT="https://public.domain.name:port". And dns has 2 addresses for this name, precisely the addresses of ovh29 and dc67 where zrok controllers are.
Is there a way to change the terminator? Or I need to release the share and recreate it. It is not clear how to specify the terminator's router. Exemple:
zrok share private -b drive path

Why the COST of edge-routers is always 0. I guess all connection related issues should be included in the edge router's COST. Since the link's COST is different, it mostly depends on the distance between the routers.

After restarting I see that element has wrong router again (dc67). It is unclear why ziti allocates a terminator on the remote router.

So I need to restart the router dc67 to get a correct circuits

This is strange: why the terminator was initially allocated on the remote host? So I need to monitor this manually and restart the wrong router to initiate the rerouting.
