The above path may be valid if it matches a network layout with WAN links
between the four points... in such case there should be a linear parent
relation towards your internet connection..

If all are at the same location then sibling relations or at most a 2 level
structure (1 parent level) is to recommend, or maybe CARP (flat structure,
minimizing the cache overlap).
