Multiple parents: *any* or *all*?

If Any are up.

It's a way of modelling a resilient network. 

On large network, it can become a bit messy (pairs of routers all
cross-connected with virtual IPs, dynamic rerouting etc). In those
cases, I tend to just add the virtual router IPs, or even skip the
switches completely until getting to end links (which for the hosts I
care about are usually single-homed international offices)
