Question: Wouldn't it be better to have the Max as the Backup Designated
Router instead of having none?  That's how mine config'd itself, so I'm
curious...

Does this mean the neighbor (Cisco) is the slave, or the Max?  I wish
Ascend's command line were as rich as the Cisco's on stuff like
this...mine made itself "master"....I have no idea how to change that, or
what exactly it means...
