[arm-allstar] Internal & External Nodes with DTMF routing with Echolink

[Doug Crompton]

Kyle,

 Since this is a private system and not open to the outside world per-say I
think the remote feature of Allstar would be the best alternative from RF
out to talk to the remote node.  The *4 remote command has been turned off
by default in hamvoip Allstar for security reasons but can be turned back
on in rpt.conf on a per node basis. The command to turn it on is -

remote_dtmf_allowed=1

This command is only needed at the node you want to control and on any
nodes in between if it is not a direct connect. It is not required on the
source node unless you also want it to be controlled from somewhere else.
In your case you would turn this on on all nodes EXCEPT the one pointing to
the outside. This would eliminate any outside command coming into your
private system.

This would allow you on the source (repeater) node to send a command like
this -

*440105*33xxxxxx

This would send a remote command to node 44105 to connect to the echolink
xxxxxx node padded with leading zero's if less than 6 characters.

You could setup a macro or a script to do this to shorten it up.
