although i've not read up on the implementation of p2p non broadcast, i
think the jist of the solution is that a 'p2p' non-broadcast is inherently
more secure than a non p2p non-broadcast circuit.....but again, i've not
read up on the technology. there is probably somthing happening at layer 2
that makes it more secure. i'm sure answer is in the wording of the
question, because it does seem that setting up a non-broadcast medium w/
neighbor statement, as well as preventing hello's w/ a passive inteface
command, would fulfill the task requirements.....but only Brian know's the
answer ;-P
