A good idea. Why not allow expanding 2 digits? I can see one callsign having more than 10, but very very few having more than 100 nodes. A little extra here might prevent having to do this again.
That idea is discussed here https://community.allstarlink.org/t/new-node-number-proposal-nnx/14978/5?u=w...
Fixed quoting (argh can people quote properly please) I think it's a good idea, this is one of the concerns I had, to make the extinction digit variable. Since node numbers are parsed left to right, there's no way to have a node 2000 and a node 20001, as 20001 would match on the 2000 when you "dial" it. For more info you can google how asterisk parses extensions, as it's really what a "node" is. This was one of the concerns we'd thought of when trying to write the spec is how people may use or abuse it. -- Bryan Fields 727-409-1194 - Voice http://bryanfields.net
