[HECnet] Stupid question about areas...

For example, passing traffic between SLAVE:: and RIPLEY:: both on DECnet area 4 but on different subnets connected via a bridge? Should be fine so long as it can still find the MAC addresses. I think it is and that the bridge is transparent, but for some reason in the back of my mind I have the concept of 'area router' and that doesn't fit with this model.
