How is the difference between netproto & netdomain defined? I'm running into
a case where I can easily turn the stack upside down (say, running frame-relay
over IP over MPLS in an IP tunnel over PPP -- that's almost working actually).
It sounds like netdomain is somehow higher up in the stack than netproto..
even though they're all protocols.
Comments?
