Hi, hopefully not, you don't have to do this :) (network admins will kill us
:) )

Here the main idea is to have differents receiver in different realms. So
you can have Europe with 2 receivers, and a VIP, and antoher realm named US
with here again 2 receivers, and another VIP.

You can have as many receiver you want, it's just a passive thing after all,
like a buffer of external commands :)
