in order for incoming packets not for the current node

don't really want to do that, and probably don't need it. without it,
packets not for the current node are discarded, which seems right.
That probably won't always be the case though right? We may want to
use the tree and torus as alternate routes for each other to route
around bad bits (primarily thinking of problems within the tree here)
- but I suppose it all depends on how we are using the various
networks.
