   ATM -> Flat/Star/Web/whatever. You can create both bandwidth and
   redundancy without routing. 

I am consistently amazed at the number of people who think that
defining an additional diversely-routed PVC through a single physical
ATM connection creates "redundancy".  Clearly these folks have never
had a card go south on them.
