How XO's know XS

[Giannis Galanis]

When the XO connects to a mesh channel, it sends a specific request for a
School server.
If it receives a reply it knows there is SS somewhere in the mesh.  After it
receives the reply it will attempt to connect to it.

If no reply is received within a certain timeout, then the XO will connect
to simple mesh.
