!! Goal
This Working Group will be used to try to help co-ordinate those Nodes located out around the base of the Dandenongs, and Outer Eastern Suburbs  These would include all areas between 20km to 40km due east, and south east of Melbourne.

Your node is not appearing on this map?  You will need to edit your node details in LocFinder and set your OSPF region to 9 (Dandenong Foothills).

Check out the (http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/go/?RGOuterEasternAndFoothills-big big) or the (http://melbourne.wireless.vic.asn.au/go/?RGOuterEasternAndFoothills-huge huge) version of the above map with additional layers such as contours and roads.

!! External Links
The region now has a permenany backbone uplink to GHO(Mt Dandenong) via FKR. GHO is intended for use by backbone nodes only and will allow our region to link to other clusters.

!! Internal Links
* Wantirna-AP1 [NodeAAF] is up and running 24/7 (most of the time).  Polarisation is horizontal on a 180degree waveguide covering from the edge of Boronia. around to the start of Wheelers Hill.
* [ClusterAAF]: 14/6/02 - Big progress starting to happen around the Wantirna, Wantirna South areas people. We will start to see a few separate AP's linked up soon.
* 20/12/02 IP's have been optained from LocFinder for several routing nodes in the region and the task of setting up some OSPF routing has begun. *shudder*
* '''8/8/03 We now have 4 nodes running 24/7 fully configured with OSPF dynamic routing.  These nodes are AAF, FKR, GJV and GHO.  We are in the process of getting some content running on these.  So far we have a few Web Servers, FTP servers, IRC Server and Unreal Tournament Server.  A main regional website will be running shortly containing updates and links to all available services.'''

!! Channel Allocations
Horizontal polarisation shown in ''italics''.
* [NodeAAF] - Public ''10'', AAF-FKR 6.
* [NodeAJJ] - Public 10, AJJ-FKR 14, AJJ-GHO ''6''.
* [NodeFKR] - Public 2, AAF-FKR 6, AJJ-FKR 14, FKR-FLP 10.
* [NodeFLP] - Public 6, FKR-FLP 10.
(Take these with a pinch of salt currently. They will be rearranged once GHO finds a permenant channel)
