[LUNI] Making a private network somewhat public.

[Richard Reina]

Yes spares are pre-configured.  However, for reasons such as replication and
quick deployability spares are also on the network.  Maybe I need to find a
way around that.  Or maybe I need to just keep having two separate
networks.  I really appreciate all of the responses.  I think it's been a
very instructive thread.  If anyone has anything else to add I am all ears,
but for now I think I have to conclude that additional risk is not justified
by the convenience.

Thanks again.
