Hi there,
I have to design a system using OSPF to communicate different mobile points (camions set). These nodes, only will use internet to mount tunnels between them through a 4g / inalambric system (they are communicate only with them). Idea is to use these nodes in concrete area temporary, and then moving on to a different city. I would like design a scalable configuration so I have different questions:
- Each track package are 5 or 6 trucks, so I'm going to use only 5 or 6 routers. I think I will not have problem using only one area (area 0)
- As is IGP protocol and they are not connected to internet (only the mount tunnels), I could use same ip's (same subnet) in each camion set, right? I main, its possible to use different areas in the same city with tracks simultaneously with same ip because they are not communication between them.
- Maybe, in the future, it will be necessary to talk with different devices, so I was thinking in the interoperativility of OSPF. Would be better to use EIGRP, for example?
- I suppose is not necessary to choose DR and BDR because are using no cabling technology
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
it is a bit hard to figure out what topology you are trying to set up, maybe you can draw this out and post a schematic drawing ? If there is no communication between the sites, why do you need a routing protocol at all ?

Hi,
attached a diagram of topology I would like to design. Are different trucks in the same city, I would like to use same configuration in different cities simultaneously, for these reason my questions of my previous post.

I think that with this network I could:
- use only area 0 without DR / BDR routers
- use OSPF or maybe OLSR would be better?
