I know :) But this is only a convenience-function. It does
not add relevant security. With the right knowledge
you can speak to different vlans via software on any
host down the line.

dont have the time to look at the source right now, but
look for the part with <socket>.bind(host,port) (not
literally)
where host is an empty string in ZEO server. Replace
this with the IP or hostname of the interface you want
to bind. (on any best fitting place down the call line)
(may be there is an option to ZEO server already)
