If there is only a single circuit on the interface it would not be
appropriate to configure nbma mode, however it wouldn't really do anything
bad.
The point of nbma mode is to associate a particular circuit in the
outgoing list instead of the interface itself. This is accomplished by
associating the neighbor IP address instead of the interface. In the case
that there is only one neighbor on the interface, associating either the
interface or the neighbor ip address in the OIL would accomplish the same
thing.
