Re: Ethernet Wan - remote office

If you want to keep your current subnet structure, you will definately
need to do some L3 routing. Minimally you will need only one router.
(as others have mentioned here) To eliminate unwanted broadcasts on the
WAN, you'll want to have two.

Depending on what the level of traffic (and the amount of $$) you
expect to have between the two sites, you might try routing them with a
small router like the Cisco 1605-R. They can be obtained on eBay now
from between $50 and $100.

If there isn't too many machines on one subnet or the other, you
>could< re-address one to match the other. - This would allow NO routing. You would, however, be transferring all the broadcasts from each site to the other site. Again, not a problem if there's only a few machines.
