FW: [MLB-WIRELESS] VIX routes available via GHO

[Matt]

Wouldn't it be sensible to set up a tunnel for this, or am I 
misunderstanding something.

BHH ->vix ->GHO but by putting in a tunnel of some sort (ipsec, maybe 
poptop, whatever whoever does it wants) BHH to GHO is transparent, vix 
don't see the ospf packets as they are in the tunnel and GHO and BHH only 
route MW traffic,
I'm sure this scenario has been discussed before. someone can decide 
whether GHO routes out to VIX for traffic originating at BHH, or if they 
both route to VIX for the vix traffic and only route MW stuff to each 
other, whatevers most efficient.
