A picture of one network I'm trying to apply these concepts to is here:

http://www.air-stream.org.au/access_points

It's dramatically simpler than the whole internet and still much for the
mind to grasp.

There will be multiple 6to4 relays and static routes won't cut it. Most
routing protocols and daemons aren't particularly appropriate either,
(suggestions would be good - but you can probably see why anycast has
such appeal if you look at that map) Thx all for the info and conf files
today, much progress in my thinking...
