[App_rpt-users] proxy registraltion

[Bryan D. Boyle]

read the proxy docs that scott referenced on ohnosec; I'm pretty much doing EXACTLY what it says there.  I've a Pi, running DIAL , connected via a wifi dongle plugged into the Pi into an LTE hotspot, which I can throw in my car along with the radios and duplexer and have a mobile repeater with full allstar capabilities.  The reason the proxy, it seems, exists is that the LTE IP address is a fungible/transient  thing, which allstar doesn't handle very well as you traverse across tower boundaries.  So, in order to have a mobile node, you stand up a proxy, as Scott has done to handle a few of us hackers on our network, and configure alkstar to talk TO IT instead of directly to the mother ship of the allstar network.

I'm using an Official Node Assignment. It has registered with Allstarlink before. It's number is 42761.  it shows up in the master node list, in my server listing, and in my allmon.  It does NOT, however, show up in the active nodes listing, which means that, regardless of whether i can connect to it, according to allstar, it's not marked as active.  My question revolves around how to get it to show up in the active nodes list when it registers via a proxy server.  I can connect it, but it's hidden in the active node list, even though even my allmon instance sees it.

It "should" work, but you never know until you try it out.  You would just have to make sure that if you tried this, you aren't bringing in the same audio source from multiple channels (effectively bridging them), since the results would not be pretty -- especially if there are any delays.

Not to mention that if I take the Pi, URI, and hotspot sans radios, I built a speaker amp & Mic interface that plugs into the URI that gives me asterisk connectivity without the radios...in a hotel room or some such...)
