DLT? I first heard it as a station wagon full of (9-track, 1600 bpi, that having been the state of the art) mag tapes on the Taconic Parkway, circa 1970. I suspect, though, that Herman Hollerith expressed the idea about a stage coach full of punchcards, back in the 1880s.

Packets, shmackets. I'm just upset that my BGP over Semaphore Towers routing protocol extension hasn't been experimentally validated yet.
Whoever you are who keeps flying pigeons between my test towers, you can't deliver packets without proper routing updates! Knock it off long enough for me to converge the #@$#$@ routing table...

Make sure you don't miss the QoS implementation of RFC 2549 (and make sure that you're ready to implement RFC 6214). You'll be highly satisfied with the results (presuming you and your packets end up in one of the higher quality classes). I'd also suggest a RFC 2322 compliant DHCP server for devices inside the hurricane zone, but modified by implementing zip ties such that the C47s aren't released under heavy (wind or water) loads.
Actually, given recent events, I'd emphasize and advocate RFC3514 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3514.txt) which I think is LONG overdue for adoption. The implementation would forego most of the currently debated topics as related to network abuse or misuse :)
