We need to create a UNIX socket for local node communication when using TIPC, much like DTM does for TCP. This is useful when using AMF container/contained and TIPC as the transport. Currently, to allow communication between the amf-lib in the container with amfnd on the host, we need to allow the container access to the host's network stack so it can see the TIPC address.
If we created a UNIX socket for local node TIPC communication we could pass this socket file to the container instead of exposing the host's entire network stack. MDS can then use the socket file for TIPC, like it does with TCP.
