[colug-432] 0.0.0.0.

Hi guys.

A popular site on the web says, "By default the Salt master listens on
ports 4505 and 4506 on all interfaces (0.0.0.0). To bind Salt to a
specific IP, redefine the "interface" directive in the master
configuration file...."

What does "interface" mean in this context?

Does this mean that salt can be configured to listen on these to ports
only from requests that identify themselves as coming /from/ a
particular IP address, or which are addressed /to/ a particular IP
address (i.e., the IP address of the system Salt is installed on), or
does it mean something self.
