24//! Tries to determine the local IP address with which we will connect
25//! to the DIM dns.
26//!
27//! The local IP address is necessary because in some circumstances
28//! Dim needs the IP address of the connecting machine (DIM_HOST_NODE)
29//! for the clients to correctly connect to them. So what we would
30//! need is the IP address over which the machine is reachable from
31//! the client. Unfortunately, we have no access to the client
32//! connection, hence, we have to find the best guess of an address
33//! which is not our own machine and hope it is routed over the
34//! standard ethernet interface over which other clients will connect.
35//!
36//! To not send random packages over the network we use a local
37//! IP address. To make sure it is something which leaves the network
38//! card and is not just our machine, we can use a broadcast address.
39//! Consequently, the deafult has been chosen to be "192.168.0.255"
40//!
41//! @param dns
42//! Address of the Dim-dns
43//!
44//! @returns
45//! The IP Address through which the connection to the DNS will
46//! take place.
47//!
48//! @todo
49//! Implement a --host command line option (just in case)
