How to simulate:

turn all network interfaces does ip link set ??? down
ip addr will still show loopback interface 127.0.0.1
create server and client with require('bonjour')({loopback: true}) to set socket.setMulticastLoopback(true) in multicast-dns library

What will happen:

the server will not be found by client

What should happen:

the client should find the server on IP 127.0.0.1
