[MLB-WIRELESS] Melbwirelses DNS and Domain Names

[Ben Holko]

yeah, but that matters little. We'd just need a couple of internet connected
nodes that can talk to the mw authoritative nameservers.

    I like the idea of the region, but I think it's better to use global DNS
    structure.

    eg: nodexxx.cen.melbourne.wireless.org.au

    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?
