I'll have to try that.  I set my PPPoE router to summarize that subnet, 
but it didn't work.

 is you put your core routes on the 0.0.0.0 range and add your PPPoE
 range to a second area and then do an Area Range in the second range.
 It will keep your PPPoE from sending routes to all routers.  It will
 summarize them so your routers will get fewer updates.  You won't get
 /32 routes everywhere for every user.

 Unless yours is a multi-state topology with hundreds of routers, put 
 everything into Area 0.  It keeps things really simple.

[WISPA] OSPF tips

2008-04-12 Thread rabbtux rabbtux
All,

I have a fully routed network thats been done manually.  Its getting
to be a complicated chore with the couple dozen little subnets to keep
track of.  Last year I upgraded 90% of my wireless network to
routeros.  Played with OSPF some, but am unclear on how to use the
'area' parameter in my topology.  I have several multi-network chains
that go out from my backhaul network like my diagram below:


Border/Backhaul - Router1- connecting net- Router2 - connecting
net2- Router3 - AP network3
|
|

 AP network2

I understand that area 'backhaul' is reserved for routers that touch
the border.  should areas be defined for 'connecting net' and
'connecting net2'?  Then would router2 have 2 areas connected but no
backhaul??

Any pointers, tips, and links are greatly appreciated, as this task
seems to grow exponentially with each new network!

Thank you kindly,
Marshall
