I will probably do floating statics. I like it simple and stable.

Dial backup wouldn't be too difficult, just have another default route going
through your ISDN with a higher admin distance to your static route, you can
use backup interface as well if you want.

I just found out today they will be growing to 1000 sites and I will still
have to design dial backup solution.

Aaron,
I've seen similar configurations, specially at banks (ATMs running FR/OSPF).
to be honest, if there are no networks behind the spoke routers (I think
there are none because you were going to configure them as Totally stubby) I
would just implement static routes, you would just have to put a default at
the remote sites, and 400 statics at the hub, its MUCH less work and
headache, and this way when you roll it out you have less configuration to
deal with. If you still need these routes to appear in the OSPF domain
beyond the hub, then redistribute it back to OSPF at the hub with a summary
address, so 400 networks would show up in your site routing table as one
route, and you just simplified the configuration of 400 sites.
Thanks,
Mohammed

Subject: OSPF for 400+ Locations
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!
Aaron
