[arm-allstar] Port number issue

[Doug Crompton]

Simon,

   I think what is confusing you is using 'iax2 show registry' Here is mine
and as  you can see the perceived does not always show the actual end port.
In this case it is 4569 but shows as 49267. The host on the left is the
Allstar end and will always show 4569.

    Host                        dnsmgr  Username    Perceived
         Refresh  State
67.215.233.178:4569   Y       40561       67.165.29.63:49267         60

67.215.233.178:4569   Y       29015       67.165.29.63:49267         60

67.215.233.178:4569   Y       29014       67.165.29.63:49267         60

​So if you want to setup connections between your servers with manual
routing you would do this:

​42098 - Rpi2 has ip of 192.168.1.145 and IAX port 4569
29023 - Rpi3 has ip of 192.168.1.142 and IAX port 4571

On the RPi2 at 192.168.1.145 *add *this in the [nodes] stanza

*29023 = radio at 192.168.1.142:4571/29023,NONE
<http://radio@192.168.1.142:4571/29023,NONE> ; route to 29023*

On the RPi3 at 1192.168.1.142 *add* this in the [nodes] stanza

*42098 = radio at 192.168.1.145:4569/42098,NONE
<http://radio@192.168.1.145:4569/42098,NONE> ; route to 42098*

They then should be able to connect to each other inrespective of whether
you are online with Allstar or not. That is another advantage of manually
doing this because if you cannot get the Allstar nodes download or you are
in a private network you have to manually route.

I guess your nodes are offline as of 4 PM EST this afternoon because
neither come up in the nodes list.

​To confirm your Allstar registration and port do this -

grep <node> /tmp/rpt_extnodes​

[root at wa3dsp-27225-hub asterisk]# grep 27225 /tmp/rpt_extnodes

27225=radio at 67.165.29.63:4569/27225,67.165.29.63

​Substitute your node numbers.​ If this shows correct and you have the
binport set correctly in iax.conf then it has to work!
