Larry , u didn't get my point at all
All these sites are connected by fiber to the core switch , all the
network around are flat network (one broadcast domain) no L3 routers in
between , u got it now?

I raelly don't see what vlans have to do with connecting remote
Sites, since most remotes are connected by routers with L3 subnets
Using /30 space. The most common way of connecting remotes to the main
Site on one subnet would be multipoint frame...

Well, I think you were on the right track by saying that for routing
purpoces it wouldn't work to well if you had multiple sites advertiseing
the same subnet, unless the subnets were NATed by the router as it was
advertised to the rest of the network...
