 # This is an example for a minimal configuration
 #
 # All messages will be sent back to the origin.
+#
+# You can use this configuration in conjunction with the 'send', 'receive' and 'random'
+# utilities as shown below (run all three steps in parallel).
+#
+# 0. Overview:
+#
+#    ./random --PIPE--> ./send  --UDP--> ./server --UDP--> ./receive
+#
+# 1. Start server:
+#
+#    $ ./server etc/loopback.conf
+#
+# 2. Send random data to server:
+#
+#    $ ./random 4 10 | ./send etc/loopback.conf node1 -r
+#
+# 3. Receive data from server:
+#
+#    $ ./receive etc/loopback.conf node2 -r
+#
