It is not the case that DLSw is a form of Concurrent Routing and
Bridging. DLSw is designed to transport bridged traffic (primarily
SNA and NetBIOS) over non-bridged networks. Concurrent Routing and
Bridging is to allow the same protocol to be routed on some interfaces
while being bridged on other interfaces of the same router.
CRB is certainly not a pre-requisite for doing DLSw.
