I am in the process of implementing DECNET phase-IV routing. When a node is
configured as a level 2 router, it is necessary to assign a different node ID
for each area the router is connected to? Should the router maintain a
different routing data base for each area? These concepts have not been
addressed clearly in the routing specification.

The configuration I was referring to, is shown below:


    --------------------------- (area 1)
		  |
	 ------------------- 
	| Router            |
	 -------------------
		  |
    --------------------------- (area 2)

Please send me e-mail at this address: jjr@alantec.com

Thanks in advance
