	One comment on CRR from my experience with the Pronet-80
product:
	You have to physically watch the interface boxes to make sure
that the rings are both operational, otherwise you might lose that
wonderful back-up redundancy.  There is some good network management
capability buried in those boxes that Proteon must bring out in
future for us to make the best use of this kind of physical level
fault tolerance.  For now you have to watch the lights.
