I assume this will work.  The only issue that I can think of is to put the 
LB1xx in standby mode so all traffic goes over the DECbridge.  I take it the 
LB1xx will come up automatically when one of the DECbridges fail.
                           -----------
                           !   WC    !
                           -----------
                             /     \
                            /       \
                +          /         \         +
                +     --------    --------     +

|     Yes, the configuration in .0 will work. The LB1xx can be put in BACKUP
    by setting line costs appropriately. Note that for a two DB500
    configuration, a DEFCN is not required. (of course, the DB500's aren't
    required either! just replace them with an LB200)

|     This customer has also refused to buy DECserver 500's because if
    one fails then a lot of users are dead whereas if a DECserver 200
    fails....
    
    I left out all the other stuff that could go onto the WC.
    
    Thanks.
