Russell was interested in implementing a DDR link to backup another
link. Demand circuit behavior in the steady state (after the first few
minutes after a network route change) will send traffic only across the
main link (unless you ping the remote DDR address). While the main link is
active, the DDR interfaces would be up, running as demand circuits, and
they would be 'spoofing'.

When the main link goes down, this event will trigger LSAs, and the DDR
link will come up.

PS - Snapshot routing is for distance vector protocols, it exists to reduce
periodic update traffic.
