Hi there Bryan F!
I would go with ipsec tunnels on the wire for peer authentication if
you're going to be using cisco and juniper. Unless you consider linksys
wrt54g units to be cisco, in which case I'd go with openvpn. From what
I understand, openvpn works just fine on FreeBSD.
But you'll want to keep the crypto off your 10Mbit ham link of course.
I haven't worked with much hardware in the 900MHz band, but I hear cisco
makes some. Get those devices to bring up a point to point Ethernet
bridge between the two of them and you should be golden.
I hear that Ubiquity makes some relatively inexpensive 900MHz equipment
with a purdy web interface and tunable band sizes. No Java or Flash or
Silverlight needed. But they run Linux.
Cheers,
C.J.

Greetings,
I've been doing some work to get the IPIP tunnel information into a router on
a daily basis, has anyone else automated this?
I was wondering how the reachability of this from the global routing table of
the public internet works, if at all. Everything I've been reading says this
is all separate, but we do interconnect at a couple locations. I must admit
I'm new to this, but is 44/8 intended to be totally separate a la the GRX
network?
Granted my use of this space is for high speed wireless networks on the ham
bands, I have little interest in the 9.6 kilobaud TCP/IP packet radio.
I've got some of the 900MHz FHSS gear hacked to run in a narrower channel, and
I've been experimenting with running some of the 5ghz units in the ham band at
5cm (5mhz channel is able to do about 10mbit/s). My intention is to have it
all work across hardware routers, ie cisco/ALU/juniper rather than maintain a
bunch of linux boxes.
Thoughts?
