This is what we are using. We are using addresses out of a Class B
though, although I don't think that it makes a difference. Forget
using RIP - it won't handle it. Set static routes up in your router
and hosts. The latest alpha of Gated sets up static routes on our
UNIX boxes for the subnets and one VMS machine relies on ICMP
redirects from the router and default routes.
