Sometimes it is helpful to run more than one servald instance on a given machine
for debugging purposes. To make this easier, there is a dummy interface driver
that servald knows about. To use it:
1. create an empty file, e.g., dummynet0, somewhere convenient
2. For each servald instance you wish to use it, set the interface specification to include the dummynet file. Use a specification like "+>pathtodummynetfile", where pathtodummynetfile is the relative path from the instance path of that servald instance to the dummynet file. For example, you might run:
% servald config set interfaces "+eth0,+>../dummynet0"
3. Run each servald instance. They should now use the dummy network.
