[MLB-WIRELESS] Melbwirelses DNS and Domain Names

[Matthew Hill]

Ben. 

however if the ips cant be routed route, then they wont be seen from the outside, unless we become one big bloody nat, and we all know how pretty they are :D

  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?
