Summary0009253: udp-communicator is talking to itself
DescriptionSomething I noticed while looking through traffic with Wireshark to search for multicast discovery packets... there's a lot of traffic from the udp communicator going from [::1]:2086 to [::1]:2086 (essentially sending to its own port). I assume this is related to hello strings containing localhost addresses (which might make sense in case multiple peers run on the same machine, I guess).

But I assume we should filter out the requests towards different peers in case their target is part of the sources own hello string?
Steps To Reproduce- wireshark (with filter: "ipv6 && udp.port == 2086 && ipv6.host == ::1")
- gnunet-arm -s
