Ted, having read through the thread, maybe you can do this with a multicast address which
typically has only one listener :-)

In ROLL, when doing the MPL work, we would up making the Admin-Local scope
multicast more precise.  We did this in RFC7732.
Probably not... but the concept you want is Admin-Local scope.
