BOLT: Basis of Lightning Technology (Lightning Network Specifications)
Since #910, nodes are allowed to use aliases instead of real scids. It is helpful to make it explicit that updates using such aliases must not be forwarded to other nodes by setting a flag in `channel_update`. This flag is also generally useful for unannounced channels, regardless of whether they use an scid alias or not. We also make the `htlc_maximum_msat` field mandatory: every node on the network currently sets it, so we can simplify the spec. |
