Another way to do it might be to have multiple Ethernet adapters, one
for the *Nix host and one dedicated to whatever simulator you're
running.? For USB, this is really cheap and I found it more
straightforward to configure.? You just shut off IP4, IP6 and ARP, DNS
Etc. on the predictable interface and set it for multi-cast all.
This worked fine for me on Ubuntu.
However, I moved Johnny's bridge over to a Mac when I was giving it a
buff and polish to see what Swift would complain about that gcc didn't.?
I haven't gotten around to moving it back yet.

Not a problem, really - just an extra step.
