There must be connectivity in the network configuration as well.
There would only be a lack of connectivity if you used FILE_SPECIFIED
network and forgot to connect an L1 controller (or had a partition in
the topology).

The MessageBuffers all connect to the same network link.  As far as
I'm currently aware (and I haven't used GEMS in nearly 2 years), there
is no way to associate different MessageBuffers with different links
