 I thought that the command "SIGNAL NEWNYM" works by creating a new
 identity.

 And  it creates a new circle of IP addresses (ENTRY, MIDDLE, EXIT) node.
 For  existing and new connections. When using WIndows Tor expert bundle
 can  not change the IP Exit Node?

 And can you explain exactly how the command works "SIGNAL NEWNYM"?

 Thx
