 From what I understand, you would only get such an error if your  
network somehow broke. Some possible causes that come to mind might  
be a network driver unloaded or crashing, faulty hardware, or  
something otherwise taking down the interface or changing it's  
ifindex. What I will do, however, is have chilli try to reconnect a  
broken socket (after trying to UP the interface that is not running).
