admin_addPeer

The addPeer is an administrative method that requests adding a new remote node to the list of tracked static nodes. The node will try to maintain connectivity to these nodes at all times, reconnecting every once in a while if the remote connection goes down.

The method accepts a single argument kni, which means "Kaia Network Identifier". It is similar to the enode concept in the geth. It is URL of the remote peer to start tracking and returns a BOOL indicating whether the peer was accepted for tracking or some error occurred.
