Well, not really.  As the video pointed out, the system was designed to =
leverage hierarchy to reduce routing complexity.   Using the hierarchy, =
port number routing is only required at the level where a routes diverge =
on a port basis - which if you're being sensible about such a deployment =
would only be at the edge of the access layer.
