[HECnet] Multiple Area routers on one area?

[Mark Benson]

Is it feasible/advisable/possible to have 2 Area Routers on a DECnet Phase IV network?

The only reason I ask is that I'd like my emulated cluster system to be able to run Area 6 independently as all the nodes are area 6 nodes and it'd be neat to have area 6 working at places events like DEC Legacy.

Would it cause issues on HECNet having 2 Area 6 routers in different places also? I'm guessing not as they are still on the same DECnet network, same as if they are in the same room on the same LAN, but what do I know ;)
