[App_rpt-users] Question

I have a couple of people coming in and linking up while I am testing. Is there a way to forcibly disconnect the link without having to reboot the system.  The link commands for COP or disconnecting all do not seem to work.

Any help in troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.

73, Greg W2GCM

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.

Did you try a second register line in iax.conf?

Sounds like you are asking if you can register with more than one system using the same node ID number.

If you look at your iax.conf file, you will see a line similar to:

register=<nodenumber>:<password>@site

<nodenumber> = your node number
<password> = your password

What you haven't told us is what node number you are registering as.  Are you actually using your AllStar node number or are you using a private node number in the range of 1xxx?

I'm not sure how AppRpt will handle having a single node number registered on multple systems, although the underlying registration process is handled by asterisk and not AppRpt itself.  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.



You can setup multiple nodes with different node numbers and register to different systems.

Take a look here for more information:

Just throwing this out there...TIA.

had thought of that...but was wondering what the implication would be of allstar seeing the same node number being registeredfrom two different IP addresses.
