This is true, but I do think it's something that we should have some story on supporting for some of this hardware that has a bunch of channels in one IP block that can't really interact with each other. It's going to make it a lot easier for people to think about the hardware and how to describe it. [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
