tinc - May 2017 - Show the subnets learnt and update configuration without reset?

1. Is there any tools/command, we can show the subnet where a certain tinc nodes
learnt? So that I can know the weight for certain subnet(in real time), instead
of go back to the node’s (who advertise the subnet) configuration file to check.

 2. So far in order to change the weight of a subnet, or something else, I have
to reset the tinc daemon( tincd -k -n myvpn and then tincd -n myvpn) in order to
make it updated, any other better ways to update the configuration and make if
effect without big impact.

SIGHUP (-kHUP) should reload that config for you and SIGURS2 (-kUSR2) will drop
currently known subnets (etc) to syslog. This will not work on Windows.

Both of these are in the tinc manual
(http://tinc-vpn.org/documentation/tinc.pdf).

Thank you, Matthew, my mistake to overlook this from the main manual.

I did a test, it resolve both of my problems, but in addition, I found the HUP
can only reload the tinc.conf, but my use case is I would like to reload the
local host file, because the weight of the subnet has been changed, anyway to
get that updated without reset the daemon?
