Corey you made my day, I was pretty sure that was the answer. -----Message d'origine----- From: Corey Dean Sent: Monday, February 18, 2013 9:15 AM To: Shane Morris ; app_rpt mailing list Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Fwd: Re : Re: Fwd: Suitability of boot media You just create private node numbers that allstar doesn't know about. I think some people confuse the system with the software. Asterisk app_rpt is the software, allstar is the public network they may connect to. I have both Private and public nodes. My public node has an allstar node number that authenticates itself to the allstar server. My private nodes authenticate to a seperate private server of my own and is not associated to the public allstar network. I can however add my node info into the rpt.conf on a public and private node and be able to access the public network from a private node... You can do what ever you want with it!

As far as I know, legislation in Australia wouldn't allow for me to arbitrarily - even by accident - link an amateur network to a commercial network. I'd lose all my licences, and probably my job. Not a good situation. However, according to Don, it sounds like hes doing precisely what I'm thinking. What he isn't explaining is what ARE the networks. Ok, its a large SIP network with an endpoint that just happens to be a ACiD install. Cool. But what does the ACiD install connect to? Amateur, or PMR? And if its commercial, how does he stop all the nice amateurs playing AllStar, as we do, from connecting to his PMR network, and thus not losing any licences? Look, these might be silly questions - but I'm told its "a radio network." Ok, theres many types of radio networks. I understand you guys mostly play amateur. I want to play commercial. Is that allowed? I mean, realistically, do you have any CBRS or GMRS endpoints on AllStar? If so, how does that work? If not, then its cause of the licences. I'm working under being totally in the dark about the licencing here. Would it help if I just described what I want to do, and someone gives me a "Yes it can be done" or "No you can't do that"?

If you dont use any linking that is not. On your licence I dont see why it would not be ok. But I am notvthe best to answer that question

Just as a point of interest, could you use the AllStar SIP service for commercial (ie, non amateur) applications?
However, your configuration you describe is pretty much what I envisage...

While improved security is a factor, the main reason for separate installs is that AllStar/app_rpt runs on a forked asterisk distribution based on Asterisk 1.4 and PAIF runs on much later Asterisk versions. Asterisk 1.8 is the oldest stable distro for PAIF you would want to run on a new install.
The main reason for the fork is that AllStar/apt_rpt runs on the Zaptel framework and the newer Asterisk versions don't support Zaptel. The app_rpt that is in the current Asterisk distributions was pretty much abandoned in place.
PAIF offers a much nicer web-gui PBX operation and is substantially easier to run for general purpose PBX situations. Out of the box, PAIF has several dozen nice features already running while the Acid/AllStar distro is very much a totally stripped down basic command line driven system.
If all you are going to do is glue a couple of radios together and maybe hook up one SIP trunk, then just use the ACID AllStar distro. It's fine for that, preferably using the AllStar SIP trunk service, since the configuration is well known and it's inexpensive.
I run several PAIF installations all tied together in a fairly large network, serving SIP phones at several locations. The single ACID AllStar distro running on a dedicated box appears to my larger network as a single extension that happens to be a radio.

You will need to run PAIF and AllStar on separate boxes. Use IAX to connect the two.
If you only have one outside IP address, you can put change AllStar to use a different port for it's outside IAX connection to the AllStar network and then the PAIF box can use the standard IAX port (if needed). Your the PAIF box to connect to the usual VOIP trunk providers.
Use the 32 bit Centos 6.3 PAIF distro and install PAIF Purple for a stable setup. (Asterisk 1.8, FreePBX 2.10)
For light duty applications, I've heard good reports about running PAIF on a Rasberry Pi, but that's still a bit experimental.

Hi all,
I am supposed to be having a HP T5630w thin client delivered to me today, and I was planning to install PBX In A Flash on it, which was recommended by one of the members of the list.
First up, can I install from say a 1GB stick to a 8 or 16GB stick, and leave the larger stick semi-permanently in the machine as boot media under the cover at the top? The thin client is quoted with only a 2GB IDE SSD, certainly not enough for this OS, and I don't want to wait another couple of weeks for postage on a 32GB IDE SSD.
Next question, which is the best version of PIAF to get? Nowhere that I can see does it quote which version of Asterisk its using or whether it would be suitable for use with the correct version for app_rpt (which is 1.4 as I take it from numerous discussions).
Last question - this'll be running on the thin client, and as we know, there are *some* security issues with 1.4 (of course, theres probably security issues with 1.8 too, but they haven't been exploited yet, so I'm not bashing 1.4, I know no piece of networked software is totally secure) so would you recommend using this "repeater controller" box on an IAX trunk to a 1.8 "PABX controller" box, and let the PABX face the world? I fully intend on using the internal but offsite connections over a VPN, but to get to the outside world and onto the PSTN it needs to go through my ITSPs, Exetels, indial account(s).
Of course, if this is recommended, which I strongly suspect it is, I'll have to get another thin client and load 1.8 on it, and establish the IAX trunk, which I imagine would be a simple exercise.
Thanks in advance for all your help!
Shane.
