I am guessing that if you have your asterisk system divided into two computers, you need to use two different port numbers for IAX to work. ? I think I read this in some posting that I can no longer?find. ? The default is port 4569,?so I suppose the second one might be 4570 or 4568? ? Can I ask a system admin to arrange for 27061 to use a different port and let me know where to change the port number in my set up? ? Thanks Ken ? PS: how about a feature - default secondary port number that can be used without special intervention?

Hard Disk Options
by Keith Dobbins 19 Jul '10

Ok, managed to talk with our repeater group and decided to move foward with using apt_rpt for our controller. I've managed to snag a decent intel atom D510 board and 4gb of ram for it as well as a direct 12v power supply. Now we are wondering about a hard drive option, USB Flash Drive, CF Card Solution, SSD mini-PCI card, what would you suggest for the longest life and least amount of headaches? I plan on running as much of the filespaces in a ramdrive that I can to reduce access to the SSD device. Thanks! Keith Dobbins A.S.

internal node: SUMMARY
by Ken 18 Jul '10

18 Jul '10

This really should be in the instructions somewhere - but, basically, you follow the instructions for a two node system (could be followed for N nodes actually) http://app-rpt.qrvc.com/node/49 the trick is pick a node number <1999 and follow the instructions except do *not* put in the entry for iax.conf and in the [nodes] section not the node section (!) you have two types of entries possible example [nodes] 1625 = radio(a)192.168.1.109/1625,NONE ; 27061 = radio(a)127.0.0.1/27061,NONE ; the one with radio(a)127.0.0.1 says to go look up that node's address in a file that gets downloaded from the allstar server the one with radio(a)192.168.1.109/ says to use this specific and forever unchanging address for that node. Of course, you fill in your own particular box's IP address If your router changes the node number of your box, this will stop working. I have a UPS on my router.

not registered nodes
by Ken 18 Jul '10

Can someone remind me what you have to do to arrange for two asterisk boxes, behind the same NAT router, to connect, without involving the registration server? I cannot find it, but think that you put the LAN IP addresses somewhere in the config files in place of something else. Tnx Ken

Node Disconnect

I created a permalink using ilink,13 and I'm still having the same problem with disconnects. Anyone else have any ideas?

Disabling Echo link announcements on non- Echo link nodes down stream
by REDBUTTON_CTRL 17 Jul '10

17 Jul '10

Hello, I have a question. If a non Echolink node is connected to another node that has chan_echolink setup and a Echolink connection comes into that node, is there a way to disable the Echolink connect and disconnect messages on the node that is connected down stream that doesn't have Echolink? If the connect messages are disabled on the Echolink node, does that disable the connect messages on the downstream node too or will it announce there since the telemetry is sent down stream? Or do the messages need to disabled on all connected nodes regardless? I guess the same rules would also apply for chan_IRLP too? Thanks, Jon VA3RQ

Jim Duuuuuude: Any chance you could elaborate a tad on the differences between a 'permalink' and a normal link? Such as what each do (or don't do) specifically? Any other 'doo-doo' on this topic would be of interest to your audience, I'm sure :) Cheers & 73, Dave VE7MQ 2140

OT: Anyone using an Android to dial into their system?
by Ramesh Dhami (VA3UV) 16 Jul '10

Hi Guys; Off-topic I know... is anyone using an Android to dial into their Asterisk / app_rpt system? - if so, which app' are you using? Conversely, is anyone using an iPhone - and if so, which app? Thx! Ramesh.

I have a problem keeping two of my nodes connected at all times. It seems that if I lose the Internet connection for only a few seconds, the two nodes disconnect from each other. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? Ron, AA7RP

web xceiver

Any idea how much horsepower is required to run this reliably? I imagine the Java parts of it need some power. Would it work on a 1.6 GHz single-core notebook or netbook? The processors in these have only about 1/3 the processing power of even a modest a dual core desktop (for example). What does it mean when the screen re-paints itself (most noticeable on the green banner on top)? What does it mean when the node connection status turns white momentarily? FWIW - hitting the refresh key disconnects and reconnects to the node Thanks Ken KE2N
