Hello. 

We plan to re-deisgn our Lan. The main question is should we now use Layer 
3 at the access ? 
I would like to know if anyone has experience with implementing a layer 3 
layer all the way up to the access layer in a campus environment . We will 
be using OSPF in our scenario .
Our network is based on a MAN network (30 devices ) + 3 other buildings .I 
have already been through some Cisco Documentations on the SRND and this 
is pretty well documented but if anyone has already implemented such 
design , can he share his experience ? 

Main questions will be : 
- Tuning of SPF and LSA Throttle to speed up convergence
- Hello and dead interval timers tuning 
- Stub or  totally stubby area at the access

Thanks
David
