 If defined, `options` should be an object with the following keys and respective values:
 
+- `blacklistTTL`: - number of ms a peer should not be dialable to after it errors. Defaults to `120000`(120 seconds)
+- `maxParallelDials` - number of concurrent dials the switch should allow. Defaults to `50`
 - `stats`: an object with the following keys and respective values:
   - `maxOldPeersRetention`: maximum old peers retention. For when peers disconnect and keeping the stats around in case they reconnect. Defaults to `100`.
   - `computeThrottleMaxQueueSize`: maximum queue size to perform stats computation throttling. Defaults to `1000`.
