Clownix switch shortcuts all the taps by managing all
the interfaces of all the machines within a single process.
The tap is used only to get out of the host.
VM1-eth0-----\       /-----VM2-eth1
VM1-eth1 ---- clownix ---- VM3-eth2
VM3-eth0 -----/  |   \-----VM4-eth0
                TAP0  
You can plug as many taps or machine interfaces to the
clownix switch, then you can change the topology.

I am working on the clownix switch to isolate it
from the big mess uml_clownix_net05.
It will has a clear interface not depending on the rest
of the platform.
In less than a month, it will be ready.
