[MLB-WIRELESS] DNS, DHCP, static ip...

That sounds like the best suggestion yet.  I'm not sold on using 10 and 172,
can not see why we need to use both.  The area idea would work well with DNS
aswell.  ie node.suburb.area.?? or even node.area.??

consume has a similar system, the list maintainer updates the file
as folks request a new network range.

for example you could choose for the wireless client access by dhcp;

%10.91.0.0/16 - central melbourne,
 10.91.1.0/24  - bob's wireless nets
%10.92.0.0/16 - northern suburbs,
%10.93.0.0/16 - eastern suburbs,
%10.94.0.0/16 - western suburbs,
%10.95.0.0/16 - geelong and suburbs,

%10.101.0.0/16 - sydney ...
%10.111.0.0/16 - canberra ...
%10.121.0.0/16 - adelaide ...

and for VPN transport/tunnels/backend networks

%172.21.0.0/16 - central melbourne,
 172.21.1.0/28  - bob's VPN and tunnels to other servers
%172.22.0.0/16 - northern suburbs,
%172.23.0.0/16 - eastern suburbs,
%172.24.0.0/16 - western suburbs,
%172.25.0.0/16 - geelong and suburbs,

but its entirely up to you... its a good place to start,
especially if one or two people start to admin the list of IPs
and networks... you need to keep it consistent.

Kim
