 ```
 
 There are three main options `add_tags`, `delete_tags` and `interval_timestamp`. `add_tags` and `delete_tags` are lists consisting of dicts with `key`, `value` and `if`. The `value` can be omitted in the `delete_tags` part as it only uses the `key` for removal. The `interval_timestamp` setting means that a unique timestamp is applied to all metrics traversing the router during an interval.
+
+# Processing order in the router
+
+- Add the `hostname_tag` tag (if sent by collectors or cache)
+- If `interval_timestamp == true`, change time of metrics
+- Check if metric should be dropped (`drop_metrics` and `drop_metrics_if`)
+- Add tags from `add_tags`
+- Delete tags from `del_tags`
+- Rename metric based on `rename_metrics` and store old name as `oldname` in meta information
+- Add tags from `add_tags` (if you used the new name in the `if` condition)

 # The `interval_timestamp` option
 
 The collectors' `Read()` functions are not called simultaneously and therefore the metrics gathered in an interval can have different timestamps. If you want to avoid that and have a common timestamp (the beginning of the interval), set this option to `true` and the MetricRouter sets the time.

+# The `hostname_tag` option

+By default, the router tags metrics with the hostname for all locally created metrics. The default tag name is `hostname`, but it can be changed if your organization wants anything else

+# The `max_forward` option
+
+Every time the router receives a metric through any of the channels, it tries to directly read up to `max_forward` metrics from the same channel. This was done as the router thread would go to sleep and wake up with every arriving metric. The default are `50` metrics at once and `max_forward` needs to greater than `1`.

 # The `rename_metrics` option
 
 In the ClusterCockpit world we specified a set of standard metrics. Since some collectors determine the metric names based on files, execuables and libraries, they might change from system to system (or installation to installtion, OS to OS, ...). In order to get the common names, you can rename incoming metrics before sending them to the sink. If the metric name matches the `oldname`, it is changed to `newname`
