Procedures, systems, and facilities disclosed herein create a node overlay to enable the node to intervene in a peer-to-peer resource bidding process. An exemplary setup at an edge of a network includes a first configurator for configuring a network interface of a first node of the network in a first configuration, wherein the first configuration allows the first node to:participate in a peer-to-peer resource bidding process with a variety of other nodes of the network. The device further includes a second configurator for configuring the network interface of the first node of the network in a second configuration, wherein the second configuration is intended to prevent the first node from participating in the peer-to-peer resource bidding process.
