That I understand and that has my full support however that is not what
I was inquiring about.  A topology can consist of n IP subnets and m DNS
widlcards and that is fine but what is being proposed is the ability to
define multiple topologies.  See xml file mock-up proposed (re-copied
below):

   <localtopology>
     <ipV4subnet>10.0.0.0/8</ipV4subnet>
     <ipV4subnet>172.16.0.0/12</ipV4subnet>
     <ipV4subnet>192.168.0.0/16</ipV4subnet>
     <dnsWildcard>*.d1.itcnetworks.ro</dnsWildcard>
   </localtopology>
   <localtopology>
     <ipV4subnet>11.0.0.0/8</ipV4subnet>
     <ipV4subnet>173.16.0.0/12</ipV4subnet>
     <ipV4subnet>194.168.0.0/16</ipV4subnet>
     <dnsWildcard>*.d2.itcnetworks.ro</dnsWildcard>
   </localtopology>

What I'm asking about is the presence of multiple <localtopology>.
Currently, we can only define one local topology (hence a single
<localtopology>).  Is was inquiring about the justifications for
introducing multiple ones.
