[Nfd-dev] Help with NFD FATAL errors

Hi John

Having RibManager log entries doesn't mean the offending packet comes from
RibManager. Thus, tcpdump trace is necessary.
For full coverage, disable Unix socket listener and force local apps
(including RIB) to connect over TCP, and do tcpdump on the loopback
interface.

Yours, Junxiao
