Peter,

>From an optimum design point of view I think it better to us point to point
sub-interfaces giving a different subnet for each spoke (or to use ip
unnumbered).

>From a lab exercise point of view, using a multipoint environment
(multipoint subint or physical) with a single subnet I would say its best to
use frame map statements unless told otherwise. This is the simplest way and
allows you to fix everything at layer 2 as opposed to layer3. Lab1 of
ccbootcamp gives a good exercise utilising policy routing to avoid frame map
statements by routing IP packets that are destined for the single subnet F/R
cloud to the hub router.

Cheers

Mark
