can clients who have connected to my network see the list or just other participants? the creator of the network can easily view any of his network and a list of all the players who have connected to it and see their manage ips, physical ip, account addresses, etc., can ordinary people who just connected to the network see this? I need to protect the personal information of all network participants.
ZeroTier is not a “privacy VPN” and does not hide the physical IP addresses of network members.
how can an ordinary member of the network (not the creator) see the list of participants?
End users can’t see the list of members per se. But they can use the CLI to get the physical IP addresses of other machines they have talked to on the network. ZeroTier operates peer-to-peer so this information must be known by each instance to work effectively. Even if this information wasn’t available in the CLI itself, users could use standard operating system tools to figure out the IP addresses of other machines they’re talking to.

Thank you, it’s a pity that this is so
Sorry. As I said, ZeroTier isn’t a “Privacy VPN”. It’s not meant to hide addresses. It’s meant to securely get packets from point A to point B as quickly as possible. The only way we could hide IPs would be to route and back-haul ALL user traffic through a centralized system. This would add latency to connections, and dramatically increase our hosting costs that we’d have to pass on to users as well.
