It will rewrite it unless you use -seed, like so:
ne1 -seed -phase 2 -net 1-10 -addr 1.1 -zone "printing"
rl0 -seed -phase 2 -net 11-20 -addr 11.1 -zone "otherzone"
If you don't use -seed, it will ask the appletalk network for the correct
settings. If there is no other appletalk router (which appears to be the
case above), then it comes up with some defaults.
