I'm afraid it is still not sharply clear.  Why would there be a mention
of tcinterfaces (which, as far as I see it belongs to the complex TC
configuration as tcpri is a self-contained TC simple configuration) in
tcpri documentation regarding an interaction possibility of tcinterfaces
with the tcpri configuration ?  I mean, since it's either 'simple' or
'internal' then why would a configuration in the other would matter ?

Thanks again, this is very useful.
