Control or Restrict the Network Interfaces (NICs) used for discovery and data distribution

In a machine with multiple NICs RTI will automatically use all available interfaces for both discovery and data-distribution. This is good for fault tolerance and ensures the data is sent to all subscribers reachable from the sender. However there are situations when an application developer might want to control or limit which interfaces are used.
