// TODO: need a better way to ignore local loopback interfaces/addresses
// We do not want to listen on local loopback even though they are up and
// support multicast
//
// Some way to detect 'is local looback' that is smarter (e.g. at least
// strict string compare on linux instead of substring) would be better.
//
// This would reject likely valid interfaces like 'lollipop' or 'lostinspace'
if (strncmp(name, "lo", 2) == 0)
{
/// local loopback interface is not usable by MDNS
