The following is true ONLY if you are not allowing for bridged traffic
across the "routed" network.
I have remote DTCs on a "routed" frame relay network without any of the
conditions noted below.
This is possible because I have "bridged" AFCP traffic.
Some would say that my network is not longer "routed".  While this is
technically true, it is only true for the DTC traffic using
AFCP.  All other traffic is still routed.

 -----------------------------------------------
In order for a DTC to communicate with its host over a routed network,
the following conditions must be observed:

You must be using HP OpenView DTC Manager
The remote router must be a DTC that handles routable traffic - I believe
    DTC16 MX and DTC16 RX and DTC72 MX are okay
A local DTC must also handle routable traffic.

If you have any specific questions, please let me know.
