Also there are some tricks point to multipoint provides that NBMA doesn't.
For example you can put seperate frame subinterfaces under the same point to
multipoint topology (the subinterfaces would be assigned IPs from the same
subnet. The OSPF network statement would then encompass both interfaces.)
I vaguely remember that the individual links of p2mp can be weighted
differently. Anyone know how to do this?
