subject: AKAs for connections

I have a hub that has request that all nodes be sure to have all three of
their network AKAs enabled on our end.  I do not see an easy way to do this
with sbbsecho/binkit.

In sbbsecho.ini:

[node:123:123/1@somenet]
        Name =
        Comment = somenet hub
        Archive = ZIP
        PacketType = 2+
        PacketPwd =
        AreaFix = false
        AreaFixPwd =
        SessionPwd = password
        TicFilePwd = password
        Inbox =
        Outbox =
        Passive = false
        Direct = false
        Notify = false
        Keys = SOME
        Status = Normal
        GroupHub =
        BinkpHost = their.host.net
        BinkpPort = 24554
        BinkpPoll = true
        BinkpPlainAuthOnly = false
        BinkpAllowPlainAuth = false
        BinkpAllowPlainText = true
        BinkpTLS = false
        BinkpSourceAddress =
[node:123:ALL]
        Name =
        Comment =
        Archive = ZIP
        PacketType = 2+
        PacketPwd =
        AreaFix = false
        AreaFixPwd =
        SessionPwd =
        TicFilePwd =
        Inbox =
        Outbox =
        Passive = false
        Direct = false
        Notify = false
        Keys =
        Status = Normal
        Route = 123:123/1
        GroupHub =
        BinkpHost =
        BinkpPort = 24554
        BinkpPoll = false
        BinkpPlainAuthOnly = false
        BinkpAllowPlainAuth = false
        BinkpAllowPlainText = true
        BinkpTLS = false
        BinkpSourceAddress =

I need to also add 123:123/0 and 123:123/10.  I don't see a place to do
that in sbbsecho.ini or in the config tool, short from adding complete new
entries for the other two and setting them both up as BinkpPoll = false.
Also, if I did that, would netmail for /0 and /10 still go to /1?

Is there a simpler way to do this?

Thanks!
