I have no objection to backup paths and routers, but leave them disabled until they're needed.  But otherwise, let's simplify the network management as much as possible.

By the way, I do not consider manually turning circuits off and on as 
response to problems to "simplify management". :-)

DECnet is dealing with all of this just fine. It's you who are having 
problems, not DECnet (or HECnet).

So, what problem are we trying to solve?
