 Yes.

 Probably at the end of communication/main.bro in this section:

 {{{
 event bro_init() &priority = -10 # let others modify nodes
         {
         for ( tag in nodes )
                 {
                 if ( ! nodes[tag]$connect )
                         next;

                 connect_peer(tag);
                 }
         }
 }}}

 It would get called if there is anything in the nodes table.
