GroupControl

The GroupControl class represents an association between a remote peer and a NetGroup that it has joined.

Use the GroupControl class to distribute peer lookup requests across multiple servers.

Directs the remote peer to connect directly to the specified peerID, which must already be in this group, and adds it as a neighbor.

This method advises the remote peer to connect to the specified neighbor. The connection process is separate and happens only after this method is called.

Throws an error if any arguments are omitted or if arguments are the wrong type.
