=> note no check is done for the address so if you put a junk

=> I verified the socket was correctly bound by lsof. Note
it is likely not compatible with multicast so with 2 VMs it becomes
very system dependent so I am not surprised it fails with CentOS.
Did the server get solicits/requests? I am afraid this kind of setup
requires a relay: same than for local-address...
