Re: [App_rpt-users] [arm-allstar] Node registration failures

6 Aug 2018


      We looked that up last night and I'm just getting around to posting this
now, sorry for the delay. See below: The UDP port comes from the Allstar
portal (as configured by the user). The port is reported to the Allstar
database by the node itself. As you can see they are different. That
generally happens when the users router is not port forwarded correctly.
ISP blocking the port would cause the same problem.

Hi Chris,
I'm glad you were able to get going again. As for UDP port 4569 being
blocked???? Interesting....  If you've got some time in the next few days,
I'd like to perform some brief testing, too.
I use AT&T 4G hotspots extensively, in several areas of the USA, and
haven't uncountered port 4569 being blocked, so far.

Lots of help from Allstar admin team and we now know a part of what is
going
on.
AT&T is filtering outbound VOIP on my port 4569.
Much thanks as I said goes to the server admin folks that spent a huge
amount of their Saturday tracing and debugging the traffic to and from my
network.

Chris,
Many of us are playing Field Day, today. We'll help you find a
resolution
just as soon as we get a moment to breath.

Following up on this.
It has been a week and my nodes still won't register.
The nscheck returns good on all look-ups.
The ping to register.allstarlink.org returns just fine.
The nodes just won't register.
I've left the computer off for anywhere from 5 minutes to over an hour.
There must be some log or something that can tell me why the server
won't
register my nodes.
It did in the past as indicated in my earlier message.
I'm completely stuck.

Chris,
It seems you are doing everything right and since it is happening on
multiple nodes it is not anything you are doing. The problem is the
Allstar
registration server which we know has problems. The fact that you are
having the problem might be related to, but not the fault of, your
Internet
connection. If a connection goes down and you lose registration using
the
current registration system it could fail to return in some cases. This
could happen in just a minute or two. When this happens as you have
found
out the only answer is to go completely offline for a period and then
return.
The answer is a new registration server which we are about to
introduce.
So
if you can bear with it for a bit we should have an answer and since
you
are apparently experiencing this problem consistently you would be a
prime
candidate for a beta test. This will be happening very soon.

Looking for ways to troubleshoot an on-going problem with nodes
failing
to
register.
1.      No changes in server info on allstar.org.
2.      2. No changes in .conf files
3.      3. No changes in public ip of server with nodes.
4.      4. 60 minutes or more with node server powered down.
5.      5. Nodes registered and working and connecting at times.
6.      Using new dns method.
7.      7. Confirmed pings to allstar registration server.
8.      8. Successful pings to servers during system_diagnostics.
9.      Code updates have been run.
This registration problem has been popping up over the past two
months
or
so.
In the latest case I was out of town for 5 days.
When I left nodes were connecting and all was well.
When I returned nodes could not connect and check_reg returned
unregistered.
See above points.
I have no idea where to look next but stability just doesn't exist.
In the past I have tried the 5 to 10 minute power off with success
but
it
shouldn't be necessary several times per week.
The latest failure to register has gone on since Sunday evening and
still
wasn't working this morning.
There must be a logical reason for this but I can't find it.
Any thoughts would be helpful
tnx
