Drivenets, as I understand it, is an attempt to physically deaggregate a 
multi-chassis fabric down to the chip level using a proprietary 
chip-set-specific cell based interlink protocol. However, it retains a single 
control plane and as such looks like a single IS-IS system.  It has no 
relationship whatsoever to area proxy.
