John,
( 1 ) If your wanting to connect all of your remotes that will not
connect up to the same
logical lan; the host will need a connection to the internet and the remotes
will need the
same.....You will then need to setup Tunnel Interfaces which are software
interfaces and
then setup your own certain criteria for your < tunnel mode / tunnel source
/ tunnel destination >
and then an IP Address on both ends that are in the same subnet....Then you
can setup
static routes on the routers to forward information that they need on the
host LAN to the
IP Address if the Tunnel Interface on the host router.....Then you can setup
your gateway of
last resort pointing out to the Internets IP Address.......
PS: You don't even have to setup a routing protocol just a routed
protocol......Keep in mind
that all of your static routes would have to be setup properly......
( 2 ) If your talking about the three Cisco Layers.....Example would be
7200 Core
4000 3660 3640 3620 Distrbution
700 800 1000 1600 1700 2500 Access
