the work that Max is doing)

I'm unclear about the implications of data-link instances being under the 
"auto" namespace.  From past discussions we've had between the Clearview, 
NWAM, and SMF teams, I was under the impression that there was consensus 
that data-link interfaces should be represented as SMF instances 
regardless of whether NWAM is enabled.  Is that not the case?  Or is it 
simply that NWAM will always be enabled in Phase I?
