   An important reason why I mentioned earlier that p-p is the prefered
method. In fact, aside from tripping you up in the lab, I can't think
of a good reason to use multipoint.

   When Cisco first supported frame relay there was no subinterface so
you had only multipoint. Life sucked and so Cisco came up with the
multipoint:)
