Xlink had originally been envisaged as a point-to-point connection leaving the "how" of that to other software. However, there's a use case where the non-AREDN radios in the xlink need to be accessed, and allocating addresses within the xlink's address range is a good way to do that. By supporting a a subnet on a xlink we can enable this.

where the non-AREDN radios in the xlink need to be accessed, and allocating
addresses within the xlink's address range is a good way to do that.
