Paul, so if more decnet routers are heard of on the land, what happens with:
A) the list that gets transmitted is truncated, the 32 most recent    routers and the transmitting host itself are on it?
B) the locally maintained list, is that also limited to 33 entries?

Almost (A) but not quite.   If more than the max routers show up on the Ethernet (whatever that limit is     it can be set to less than 33), the excess are dropped first based on router priority, and if it   s a tie then by address (higher address wins).   See section 9.1.1 in the DNA Routing spec.   The adjacency that   s rejected as a result is logged     event 4.16, with no reason code because the Netman spec forgot to define a specific reason code for this particular case.
