[MLB-WIRELESS] Melbwirelses DNS and Domain Names

[Matthew Hill]

Ryan and all

This is what i wanted to bring up a while ago and they werent interested.

This is similar to what perth suggests, and what your suggested in your example, rocks. Exactly what is possbily should be. 

www.wantirna-ap1.oef.mw says exsactly where it is, 

www.thebigfella.peninsula.mw that would be mine ...

Al;though i can see it being a while since we dont have  alot of the areas connected, it doesnt hurrt to have something implemented early so it fits in oncec connected.

Cheers

MAtt

  So, is there anything happening with regards to some sort of domain
  structure on the network?  Anyone from WGRouting&Addressing looking at this
  at the moment?

  I've started messing with domain names over our way.  Now bear with me here
  because I don't know much about it or the terminology....

  Here's a few thoughts.

  We need something we all use that signifies we're melbwireless.
  e.g.  .wan  .mw  .melw

  then perhaps something to signify regional areas.
  e.g. .oef (outer east&foothills) .inn (inner north) .cen (central)

  so you'd end up with something say www.wantirna-ap1.oef.mw

  Now there's of course the other school of thought that we use domain names
  that fit in with the rest of the world. But my feeling is that this comes
  back we're going to need globaly routable IP's, etc then....And some
  internet feeds, at which point you're looking at a wireless network with
  open internet access, which is playing with fire in my opinion.

  What are other peoples thoughts/ideas?
