STAR

The star strategy is a peer-to-peer strategy that supports a 1-to-N, or star-shaped, connection topology. In other words, this enables connecting devices within radio range (~100m) in a star shape, where each device can, at any given time, play the role of either a hub (where it can accept incoming connections from N other devices), or a spoke (where it can initiate an outgoing connection to a single hub), but not both.

This strategy lends itself best to situations where there is one device advertising, and N devices which discover the advertiser, though you may still advertise and discover simultaneously if required.

This strategy is more strict in its topology constraints than the cluster strategy, but results in higher bandwidth connections. It is good for high-bandwidth use cases such as sharing a video to a group of friends.
