I am interested in hearing about how everyone set up their
numbering schemes -

I am in the process of setting up a more extensive LAN and
must find some more information related to this.

We are not currenty connected to the ARPA/MILNET network,
but perhaps in the future...

Our current configuration is very simple; 

Two primary site LAN's connected via VITALINK bridge -

So, I ask of your experience in this matters;

What criteria are considered when deciding on a host numbering scheme?

How to maintain consistant host numbering when VMS sites are involved?

Any pointers to a source of information on this matter??

Thanks in advance for your time,

Jeff Janock
