Hi Numan.  I am trying to properly understand the
reside-on-redirect-chassis option.  I think that it has two effects:

1. Traffic over the router port is always sent to the gateway chassis.

2. Traffic to the gateway chassis over the router port is always sent via
   localnet rather than a tunnel.

Is that correct?  #2 seems to be stated by the documentation and the
commit messages, but I haven't been able to work out exactly why it has
that effect.

Thanks,

Ben.
