The only one I was aware of was the first one you mentioned, which, while running is fairly primitive in its capabilities. The second one sounds like it gets pretty dysfunctional if you have downstream routers with downstream routers. I haven't even heard of the third one, so absent some reference, I can't really comment. Owen
