Please see my comments under "forwarding information base". The very fact that my comments on forwarding and control separation wound up there rather than here does support a structural problem. I'd be getting into really esoteric material to have a top-level thing called "relaying", much broader than "switching", and then have forwarding and control under that, which then branch into the instantiation of forwarding and control at different layers, with different media, etc. Truly, doing that would be technically correct, and even more certain to confuse people than the OSI Reference Model. :-( Howard C.
