Description

There seems to be some confusion as to what some of the various methods and configuration options do and how you should use them to correctly identify nodes and compare them. Try and add more comments to explain what is going on.

Also make UUIGen node incorporate the port and not just address to be consistent with what we consider and instance to be.
