[leaf-wisp] Interesting routing problem

Hello All,

I have come across a bit of a routing challenge. I need to do a point to
point link with 2 wisp-dist boxes. Here are the specifics.

1. The wireless nics in the wisp-dist boxes do not support promiscuous mode
making a layer 2 bridge impossible.
2. The network currently has x.x.x.1-x.x.x.10 and x.x.x.250-x.x.x.254 in
use.
3. The CPEs are getting addresses via dhcp within the available range.

I would like to setup a proxy arp bridge, but I need to route the full block
of available addresses. The wisp-dist boxes need to act as a transparent
bridge. I assume I could set up subnet for the three blocks of addresses,
but I'm no routing wizard. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Gerry
