So, in such configuration (a "direct" link), any broadcast detection protocol 
seems better than implementing a double netif on the same phy interface. Right?

        In a lot of network, administrator configure router for dropping 
broadcast packet and allows only multicast!
        
        For our customer needs, i decided to implement on my board (without 
user interface) the possibility to work with double netif on same phy 
interface: one using dhcp, and one using fixed IP in different family address 
configured in DHCP server (i.e. LAN uses 10.51.yy.xx and fixed IP is 
192.168.0.1).
        In this way, board could work as client using its dynamic ip, and act 
as server on fixed ip for maintenance reasons. So the maintenance engineer can 
use a cross cable and a laptop or can connect a laptop on the same hub of board 
(to avoid routers drops packet outside the familiy address)
        
        We discussed about my idea here:

                A simple but good way is to have the device do a UDP broadcast 
of whatever
                you want know. It does mean that the PC would need software 
running on it to
                receive the bcast and do what you want done.
