[Dxspider-support] Curiosities about network topology

[IZ2LSC]

This topic is very close to what happened with BGP (Border Gateway
Protocol) that is the routing protocol that manages all the internet routes
(so very solid, well designed, scalable).
If we want to do something more structured we can take inspiration from BGP
introducing the concept of Autonomous System, Route Reflector and
Confederations.
