[arm-allstar] Forwarding nodes

[c b]

we have more then 30 nodes that are behind a router.

The router is located at the Internet connection point along with a
hub-node.

>From there it goes out microwave to the rest of the sites.

All nodes are full time linked.

In order to minimize traffic on the microwave there is only one audio path
between any microwave route. Thus, I stopped the port forwarding to notes
past the main hub node.

As all node shown individually (with status) on all-star is desirable and I
want to minimize traffic on the microwave I instruct people to connect to
the main hub node.

This is not always working as sometimes I get complaints that they cannot
connect to the node they have looked up.

It would be nice if AllStarLink had one or both of the following

1)      The ability to in AllStarLink to permanently set up   call
forwarding to a min hub-node

2)      A column on the node list connect via thus instructing people to
connect via the main hub node.

As these are not available is there a way to set up a node whose purpose to
do one of the following

1)      Call forward inbound calls to the main hub-node (most desirable)

2)      Or to be programmed with a large number of pseudo nodes with the
node numbers (not registering and with a different port number than I use
internally but matching the port number registered in AllStarLink thus
intercepting the inbound traffic and have that node linked to main hum node?

Any ideas greatly appreciated.
