Is 144.47.197.9 the local address?

Your code above should suffice. A bit slicker than what I was using, so
I might steal it.. :)
I'm not 100% sure what these fields represent, though. ie, I'd venture
a guess that partner-address is the address of the failover peer, but
I'm not 100% certain. Regardless, your interpretation of the hex code
is correct. At least, from what I've observed locally, anyway.
