<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>hmm, damn... never thought about that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Could always number all the melbourne suburbs in
groups. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>10.mel.suburb.node.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>CBD
10.1.*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Northen Suburbs
10.2.*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Eastern Suburbs
10.3.*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Southern Suburbs
10.4.*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Western Suburbs
10.5.*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Say, 180 eastern suburbs (i got no clue
how many there actually are) each numbered from 1-180 on a chart;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>10.1.*.* = cbd node</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>10.2.<suburbid>.* = node in eastern suburb
(<suburbid> being the unique number given to that suburb?)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Again though its virtually impossible due to the
limitation in ranges, you'd be limited to 254 nodes per suburbid.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It doesnt leave any room for ajoining areas like
gellong or interstate though heh. doh</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Its impossible to use ip's to identify node
areas without wasting all the ranges.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What about ipv6? :)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
