When TRUE, proxy clients are placed on one Point-to-Multipoint Control Distribute VCC and all other clients are placed on another Point-to-Multipoint Control Distribute VCC. When FALSE, all clients are placed on a single Point-to-Multipoint Control Distribute VCC. The advantage of using two Control Distribute VCCs is that non-proxy clients are not perturbed by LE_ARP_REQUESTs for unregistered LAN Destinations (the LES answers LE_ARP_REQUESTs for registered LAN Destinations). The disadvantage is that Control Frames destined for all clients (LE_TOPOLOGY_REQUEST, LE_NARP_REQUEST, and possibly LE_ARP_RESPONSE depending upon LES-BUS-12) must be transmitted on 2 VCCs (as a related aside, note that LE_FLUSH_RESPONSEs are sent solely to the originator of the corresponding LE_FLUSH_REQUEST over the Control Direct VCC to that client).
