	Hello All ,  Someone has been trying to foist off on a friend of
	mine a box from Scientific-Atlanta called a Luminous ?  That is
	supposed to do the something simular .  Anyone have any insights
	on this product line ?  There is also some card/add-on device that
	will (supposedly) allow it to do routing decissions thru
	rip/ospf/... .  Never seen the unit nor heard much about it .
