For a temporary project, I need my primary address space, 172.16/16 to be shared with a remote office over a full T of frame. Right now, I am running a different address block in the remote office and routing between the two sites which works fine but I quite desparately need to have the 172.16/16 network available on both sides of the WAN.
Is this possible? How do I configure it?
Thanks.

There is a feature called IRB, Integrated Bridging and Routing, which allow you to route a protocol on some interfaces and bridge it on others. This allows you to put multiple bridged interfaces in the same IP segment.
There is an example at the following URL -

You would need to configure bridging across the frame as well.

Since you are bridging two networks, all broadcast will go over the link to the other side. So if you have 2 busy networks on either side, a lot of the link will be used for broadcasts.
