Is this specced anywhere? Or where can I find this in the code?

In particular I saw mentioned in the protocol docs, that nodes will heartbeat their own external addr periodicially.

Do node repropagate these messages? If so then how do they distinguish them from other addr messages?

Where can I find the places in the code where addr messages are sent and received?

Thanks
