hi all,

pimNeighborTable is indexed by pimNeighborAddress.

but can we not have a case where a router has the 
same neighbor ip address on two different interfaces?
in which case it can be uniquely indexed only by
the tuple (pimInterfaceIfIndex, pimNeighborAddress).

this situation could arise, for example, when the 
router peers with another over a LAN 'and' through
an unnumbered point to point tunnel.  if the neighbor's
router id is its LAN interface address, it would advertise
the same ip address on both interfaces.

or is this too far fetched?

thanx,
mohit.
