programmatically, i.e. you cannot make a router through external configuration alone.
If you define the router actor in the configuration file then these settings will be used
instead of any programmatically provided parameters.
In order to make an actor to make use of an externally configurable router the ``FromConfig`` props wrapper must be used
to denote that the actor accepts routing settings from configuration.
This is in contrast with Remote Deployment where such marker props is not necessary.
If the props of an actor is NOT wrapped in FromConfig it will ignore the router section of the deployment configuration.
You send messages to the routees via the router actor in the same way as for ordinary actors,
i.e. via its ``ActorRef``. The router actor forwards messages onto its routees without changing
