Tunnel2 (the one to sweden) hasn't come up yet, just FYI.

My error...

Anyone else that wan't to join the routed DECnet over GRE tunnel
network? 

Should I set the cost differently than what fa0/0.2 has or should they 
all be the same?

It depends on what other external connectivity you have on fa0/0.2,
again, we have link that are L2 bridges that have no metrics...

My suggestion is to keep them all at 10, as that will pick the routed
path with the lowest number of hops. Now, if there are Ethernet
bridges in there to, they will be prefered.. 

My memory is short, but someone made a map of HECnet, they are better
off to answer this question, I just deliver the milk.
