Hi, all,

So am I to understand that the "problem statement" is:

    - given two cooperating devices, how to manage a set of bonded links
between them?

Isn't that what routers already do?

(yes, I know that I've glossed over the fact that these "links" might be
tunnels - because we have dozens of ways of doing that already)

Joe
