[Arm-allstar-irlp] How do I move secring to new computer

[Doug Crompton]

This may have been taken care of but I suspect there are some running the
hamvoip IRLP code that are also new to Allstar.

Allstar does not require port forwarding like IRLP for outgoing calls and
if you don't want incoming calls you can eliminate it.

The IAX port defaults to 4569 and is the port usually used when one server
is at a location. If other servers (Pi's) are added you should select other
ports to use. This can be any unused port but typically 4568, 4567, etc, or
4570, 4571, etc.  If you are using other than port 4569, the default, you
MUST change the port number at BOTH allstarlink.org in the server network
info AND in /etc/asterisk/iax.conf - bindport=

Then if you want incoming Allstar access you must add a port forward (UDP)
with the port assigned to that server pointing to the servers IP address.

In addition port 222 (TCP) could be added to have outside of your LAN  SSH
access to your server. If you have many server you can either assign a
different ssh port number to each or just use the one to access in and then
ssh from there to others on your LAN. Whatever ports you want outside
access to need to be port forwarded.

IRLP requires the described port forwards to work and like when you use
IRLP hardware you can only have one IRLP port per public IP.

Also if you are using a connection scheme like a hotspot where port
forwarding cannot be achieved Allstar will work outgoing, not incoming, and
IRLP will not work. In some case you will need to use the hamvoip dns node
lookup code when using a hotspot for it to work correctly. This will soon
be available for general use but until then just ask for the DNS node
lookup beta info and I can supply it.

If you are new to Allstar and you have questions about things do not
hesitate to ask. Many questions are answered on the hamvoip.org web page
especially in the howto's but as a newcomer I am sure there would be other
questions. While you could ask here If it is a strictly Allstar question it
might be better to ask on the arm-allstar email list forum. Subscribe
