The "show neighbors" command currently dumps the GUID and key from the IPC neighbor list. Its fine for now but it does not fit on all screens well because of the column width. I think it would be better to only show a list of the neighbors and their current communication state. We might use something like.

DOWN = Is not currently communicating with that neighbors.
CONNECTING = Connection is opening.
UPDATING = Syncing database.
CONNECTED = Neighbor is authenticates and working.

To view the other details like the remote neighbor GUID|UUID configured encryption key. A new command would need added "show neighbor <neighbor ipaddress="">". It would display some of those details the "show neighbors" command does now but only for one node. If needed a "show neighbors details" command might be added that would output the details of all neighbors in the single neighbor details format.
