This can be confusing. Connection-required is for things like dial-up modems: 
it means the host isn't reachable now, but may be if an action is taken to make 
a connection (like dialing a modem.) This isn't really useful any more, but it 
used to be that the app could look up which interface supported the connection, 
then either autodial or prompt you whether you wanted to connect.

These days you can pretty much treat that flag as meaning "no connection".
