Let's hear the alternatives.

I'll give you 10 peers, each on its own RFC1918 subnet. You give me a flat addressing scheme that doesn't involve NAT and IP6, requires no manual configuration on peers' part and keeps them on a single connected (in routing terms) network, so that broadcasts and multicasts work. Go!



MPLS from a big ISP....


Yes, sure, for 10 bucks a month.. :)


How exactly? Connect these three, for example -

  Peer 1: 192.168.0.111/16
  Peer 2: 172.16.0.222/12
  Peer 3: 10.0.0.333/8


10.0.0.333 <- this one is going to present a problem, I can tell you right away ^_^


Whoops :)
