There is a semi related discussion on nwam-discuss at the moment (that started after this thread) http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=12040&tstart=0 > - I strongly agree w/ Jim about the semantic difference between forwarding > and routing: he explained this earlier.

That works for me. I think properties for v4/v6 is a much better idea than using instances. -- Darren J Moffat
