for me, it means that i can have 'internal' vservers that are protected from
outside attack, but are still accessible for use by my other vservers - e.g. i
have a mysql vserver on an internal dummy interface, and also a development
vserver like this. another advantage is that i can set stuff up that would
normally require localhost (e.g. apache status monitoring) on the internal dummy
interface so that i can see it, but again it is not accessible by the world.
