The current server is reachable at `clm.testnet.lightningcluster.com:12010`,

## Transport security
The gRPC and REST connections of `poold` are encrypted with TLS the same way
`lnd` is.
If no custom base directory is set then the TLS certificate is stored in
`~/.pool/<network>/tls.cert`.
The `pool` command will pick up the file automatically on mainnet if no custom
base directory is used. For other networks it should be sufficient to add the
`--network` flag to tell the CLI in what sub directory to look for the files.
