[arm-allstar] Stopping DNS lookup

[Doug Crompton]

Corey,

 First of all private node number should be less than 2000. Don't try to reinvent the rules! The node number you have made up is probably an echolink node number.

If a node is truly private you would NOT advertise it. No statpost statements in rpt.conf. Comment them out. 

The system will always go to the nodes statement in rpt.conf first BUT you are confusing it with an invalid node number.

Is this a completely private system meaning you do not want to connect or register to any valid node? In that case you would have no registered nodes and therefore the node update would not work and not create the outside node list. Are you registering a valid node? Do you want to connect to other registered nodes?

Subject: [arm-allstar] Stopping DNS lookup

I’m working on a network of seven BBB’s with private node numbers outside the normal Allstar range.  They all have fixed IPs in the range 10.1.2.x.  When I try to connect from one to the other on the local network (for example: Node 244695 with IP 10.1.2.1, connect to Node 214724 with IP 10.1.2.2, using rpt fun 244695 *3214724)  node 244695 seems to go to the Allstar DNS and finds node 2147 active and connects to it.   If I change node 214724 number to be 214524 it connects as desired, node 244695 to the node now numbered 214524.  Node 2145 is not shown in the Allstar node list, that’s why I chose it for a test. How can I restrict connections to the local network only and to nodes defined in the [Nodes] stanza? Thanks,Cole AA7RD
