Description
Identify is a STUN protocol, used by libp2p in order to broadcast and learn about the ip:port
pairs a specific peer is available through and to know when a new stream muxer is established, so a conn can be reused.
How does it work
The spec for Identify and Identify Push is at libp2p/specs.
