[arm-allstar] Direct to Controller

[Roselito de los Reyes]

Hi Wayne,


I would think that all these are virtually possible to setup as IRLP and allstar utilizes different ports. The challenge I think lies in marrying your USB device(s)  to the appropriate OpenVZ container.


The other challenge I think is the proper configuration of the multi-gateway to-from your repeater IP and your Broadband-Hamnet IPs.


But I believe that if there's a will there would be a way.


My unsolicited opinion? run RPi for each node (Allstar and/or IRLP(don't know if they have an arm version)) .. They are so cheap that you should be able to do this.


73,


Lito

Since we aren't doing anything fancy I've decided to setup a computer at the repeater site and to the controller, a RC-210. I've been reading this group for some time and assume that something as simple as  RasPi is all that I need. But I wonder: has anyone installed KVM, Virtuozzo, OpenVZ or any other partitioning software so that they may run Allstar in one container and that (ah-hum, sorry...) IRLP in another container? I run Virtuozzo and OpenVZ at work and the simplest PC I have is a dual processor AMD. I know that it won't boot from USB unless *maybe* if I update the BIOS. I haven't tried. I may have another dual Intel. I have stacks of these things. I'd love to use just a RasPI but I'm new to this part of it. My ultimate goal is to put the computer at the repeater site where we have 5.8GHz between each site that I want to put remote receivers on. So, I'll have an Intranet even if the Internet goes down.


OK. Here's the biggy. My site owner only provides me one IP. I have to provide my own router/firewall. Not a problem. But then I'll have to go DHCP. ==>> Can I do port forwarding to get to Allstar and (ah-hum) that other RasPI? <<== I can host a domain somewhere and assign it to the base IP but is there a file I can modify to specify the port? Please excuse my NooPness. Not sure how to ask these questions. As it is the RC-210 is only a three port controller. It has a hidden and very simple 4th port that I can put a RTCM on unless there's an easier way like a FOB. I know that NooP questions are frowned upon.

Thanks.
