+    This option mitigates attacks where the adversary runs middle nodes
+    and induces your client or service to create many circuits, in order
+    to discover your primary guard node.
+    (Default: Any node in the network may be used in the second hop.)
+ +

+    where C is this client, S is the service, G is the Guard node,
+    L2 is a node from this option, and M is a random middle node.
+    Rend, HSDir, and Intro point selection is not affected by this

+    This option may be combined with _HSLayer3Nodes to create

+    ExcludeNodes have higher priority than _HSLayer2Nodes,

+ +
+    This option is meant to be managed by a Tor controller such as
+    https://github.com/mikeperry-tor/vanguards that selects and
+    updates this set of nodes for you. Hence it does not do load
+    balancing if fewer than 20 nodes are selected, and if no nodes in
+    _HSLayer2Nodes are currently available for use, Tor will not work.
