To the most learned scholars in the school of hard knocks:
 
In testing a network configuration, we setup a backbone with a
lan card on a 960. A second lan card did the DTC stuff.  The lan
and backbone were O.K. until a powerfail. The backbone lan used
the SOFT lan node address capability on NMMGR.  HARD lan node
Address is the default used by the card on powerup.
 
Upon the powerfail, the backbone ceased to work.  Checking the
NMMGR config and revalidating did not help. The solution was to
change the SOFT lan address and revalidate.
 
The Question is:  Does NMMGR revalidate the whole config or ONLY
changes?
