Not really.  It can attach to the Multiswitch 900 backplane
in the rack with the rest of the DEChub 90/900 devices, and
I can configure it with ClearVISN (I need to find a full
copy though, as it isn't on the old DEC website anymore).
The MS900 will handle all the internal routing between the
different modules, and I can partition it into different
VLANs.

The RoamAbout AP is definitely more feature-filled than
my Apple Airport.

I invented it back it 1792.
