There is always more than one way to skin a cat. Here is just one. Create a node as a HUB (node without radios). Connect all nodes to the hub. Monitor the hub with allmon for better single point management. If echolink connects, attach that to a node without radios and connect that to the hub. Gives you more control and monitoring this way. Many other ways to do it and the best depends more on what exactly you do with your nodes. ...mike/kb8jnm
-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [App_rpt-users] Best way to link multiple nodes From: Mike M <kf7mbk@w7ara.net> Date: Tue, December 16, 2014 10:40 am To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org
I have set up an allstar system with 5 private nodes (soon to be 7).
I can link the individual nodes to one another, or say 4 of the nodes to the 5th, but is there a better way? I was looking at ConfBridge but couldn't get it to work.. not even sure it would work.
I tried several things (I'm still learning) but I made an entry under [radio-secure] exten => 1000,1,ConfBridge(101)
I was hoping to be able to do *31000 and connect to the bridge. But it did nothing.
I just want to be able to have multiple bridges and be free to connect any node to any bridge. If I connect all the nodes to a single node, I can no longer take that single node and connected it to something else without disconnecting all the other nodes connected to it.
Just not sure what the norm is...if there is one.
