The
filterInterfaces
function reduces the useable network interfacesfor peer discovery. Due to two changes introduced in v1.6.41 and
v1.6.52, a self-discovery over a loopback device was no longer
possible.
For reasons, a device either holds the loopback flag or the multicast
flag, not both together. This commit reflects this.
Furthermore, some refactoring of the
filterInterfaces
function wasperformed to ease its understandability.
