   One is for AX.25 connects.  The other is for NetROM connects which DO 
NOT stipulate an interface BECAUSE the routing table determines what is 
the right interface and path to the destination station.  This is like 
comparing Apples and Oranges.

   The 'ax25 default' command is not available on my JNOS2.0a version.  
Perhaps there was a compile-time option I missed.  But a simple 'ax ?' at 
the jnos> prompt did not show this as an available command (on my system).
