Versions of app_rpt.c which are older than version 0.199 might be sending telemetry to foreign nodes under some
conditions, especially if the foreign node is running a really old version of app_rpt.c which does not use the
new keying scheme.

You should check what version of app_rpt.c you are running and see if the foriegn node is running a really old
version of app_rpt.c
