What is the purpose of a Tor introduction point?

The introduction point sends the message to the server and the server can choose to accept it or do nothing. If the server accepts the message it will then create a circuit to the rendezvous point.

How many nodes make up a Tor circuit?

A path through the Tor network built by clients consisting of randomly selected nodes. The circuit begins with either a bridge or a guard. Most circuits consist of three nodes - a guard or bridge, a middle relay, and an exit.

How does a Tor circuit work?

Tor works by sending your traffic through three random servers (also known as relays) in the Tor network. The last relay in the circuit (the “exit relay”) then sends the traffic out onto the public Internet. The image above illustrates a user browsing to different websites over Tor.
