I have experience with OSPF but I am looking for suggestions on how to
implement OSPF in a Frame-Relay Hub/Spoke topology for 400+ locations. Each
location only needs to know about the host through a default.

My first idea
is to have a separate area for each location and make it a totally stubby
area. Is there a better way. My concern is that there will be 400+ areas in
the OSPF Database at the host.

The host will be a Cisco 3745. The remotes
will all be Cisco 1751.
Thanks!
