=> I guess, w're on the wrong list for this discussion. But I don't understand your concern about "propagation". In Jim's case, you're not likely to use Dynamic MAP discovery.

I agree that it is not supported by all cards as you guys keep telling me :) Hesham -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
