.....I'm waiting....*taps foot*
...hello.....only thing holding up some big progress....anyone.....*taps foot*

>>The task is to come up with some *simple* example network diagrams showing

>>example nodes, their interfaces, IP's, and then to show some sample
>>zebra.conf and ospfd.conf files that match each scenario.  Example's could

>>be a daisy chain setup of links, a spanning tree of links, and a combination

>>of both.  Each example need only consist of 4 or 5 nodes at the most to give

>>people a starting point to work from.
>>
>>If Zebra and Ospf have been selected as the preferred setup method for
>>backbone links then some assisstance would be good for those of us wanting

>>to follow this but are having difficulty.  I'm sure you are all well aware

>>that Zebra and Ospf have a severe lack of good easy to read documentation.

>>I know because I've been searching for the past 6 months or more.
>>
>>At the moment I have a cluster of 7 nodes to permenantly connect and
>>potentially 4 more just waiting for me to "be ready".
>>The only thing stopping this cluster from going to a fully live and
>>functioning WAN is my lack of understanding of Zebra and Ospf.....mainly.

>>Several of these links will form part of the major backbone for Region 9
>>(Dandenong Foothills) and will potentially host some of the main
>>content/servers.
>>
>>Any assistance from the RoutingWG could increase our setup pace considerably

>>and give Melbwireless something to show for all it's talk and organisation

>>in the form of a decent size cluster consisting of backbone links, routing

>>nodes, AP's, and client/leaf nodes.  This cluster can go on to be a testing

>>ground and an example to other regions.
>>
>>There is huge potential for growth in several geographical areas and all it

>>will take is some backbone infrastructure to be put in place for this to
>>expand at a rapid rate.
