Dear All. I see that Ray talk (ask) about 2 things at a time : 1. small part of basic 802.11b networking 2. OSPF.
and here is my notes for both. 1. In IP routing , stations who wants talk each other directly basically have to be at the same physical layer backbone (i.e : connected to a single eth hub) , and in the same IP network.... and if the physical layer is 802.11b we have to make sure that... station who want talk each other directly in 802.11b network have to be at the same channel and the same network ID (ESSID). 2. OSPF. Routers who want exchanging route table have to be at the same Physical Layer ... and have MAIN ip address in the same IP network .. Plus they have to list each other as a neighbor (old fashion way) or have the same msg-digest-key (recent way).
