Just FYI. It is slightly interesting and informing:

15-JAN-16   03:44:30 Node: MIM   (1.13) "RSX system at Update, Sweden"
                  RSX-11M-Plus, Area Routing Node, DECnet V4.6
Area Circuit Hop/Cst   Next Node        Area Circuit Hop/Cst   Next Node
  2 IP-0-0     1/1    LEGATO( 2.1)
  3 IP-0-0     2/3    LEGATO( 2.1)
  7 UNA-0      2/7    SG1   (19.41)
  8 UNA-0      1/3    GORVAX( 8.400)
12 UNA-0      2/13         ( 1.1023)
14 UNA-0      1/3    SKHNGW(14.4)
18 IP-0-0     2/3    LEGATO( 2.1)
19 UNA-0      1/3    SG1   (19.41)
22 UNA-0      2/23   HUB   (42.1022)
23 UNA-0      2/13         ( 1.1023)
33 IP-0-0     2/3    LEGATO( 2.1)
39 IP-0-0     2/3    LEGATO( 2.1)
42 UNA-0      1/3    HUB   (42.1022)
44 UNA-0      1/3    A44RTR(44.1023)
59 IP-0-0     2/3    LEGATO( 2.1)
61 UNA-0      2/23   HUB   (42.1022)
62 UNA-0      1/3    CTAKAH(62.637)
  - Total areas: 17-

Notice the number of areas that MIM now decided should go over IP-0-0, 
which is the link to LEGATO. Since I set the cost for that link to 1, 
while ethernet is at 3, it is rather favored. Not sure it really makes 
sense to route packets to area 59 that way, since going over ethernet, I 
would have a direct ptp to area 59 through a Cisco router sitting right 
next to MIM, but that then becomes a question of what the cost of the 
link between 1.1023 and area 59 is set to.
