I have DTCs sitting at remote sites.  These sites are connected to the site
where the HP3000 resides via Frame Relay circuits.  I know that DTC traffic
is bridged (not routed).
This diagram tries to visualize the set up.

 My question is this -

Is the traffic from site 3 also "seen" by the LAN at sites 1 & 5?
Is the traffic "bounced" to other sites that are also "bridged"?
(by "traffic" I mean the "bridged DTC" traffic, I understand that other
routed traffic will
not be seen by the other sites)

I am concerned about propogating lots of "irrelevant" traffic around my WAN.
