<br>
I am using duckdns and it is free. it is a very easy to install.<br>
<br>
look here<br>

<br>
when you use dynamic host names your ip could roll anytime the the
other node would know within 5 minutes<br>
that it has changed and what the address is. <br>
<br>
I have setup a network just like this using all private nodes. And
i use ddns when ever possible.<br>
<br>
works very well too.<br>

<div>thanks Doug, yup we are running some nodes like you describe,
but with the growing number of nodes in the system and most of
them being on dhcp. it is being frustrating to update all nodes
when one change ip adress. the dns thing could be a way to setup
a network, but we would need to set a dns system like <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://no-ip.com">no-ip.com</a>
service, not a small task.. <br>

You are basically right in your assumption of how it
works for global Allstar but if you want to create a local
private system it could be much simpler assuming a few
things.<br>
<br>
You do not have to register to establish a connection
between servers assuming BOTH ends know the other IP
address and port. If the IP addresses are known then each
node would manually have that inserted in the rpt.conf
file. Then those servers could connect to reach other
independent of the Allstar system. Of course there is a
couple of caveat. The most important is knowing the public
IP address of the distant server. Since most sites do not
have static puiblic IP addresses the IP address could
change so using a dyndns service would be required. You
could also create your own dns server as long as at least
one node had access to a static public IP.<br

</font><br>
<font style="" face="Tahoma,sans-serif">Another option ff
your servers are LOS and you wanted to create your own
network using say Ubiquity 2.4 or 5Gig links then you
would assign your own IP addresses and they would not
change so from that standpoint it would simplify things</font>.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>we are a small group of ham and club in the Quebec
province that want to do our own lottle network of
app_rpt repeater</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have taken a good look at how allstarlink manage
registration and I did figured out that there must be
a script running on an asterisk server named <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://register.allstartlink.org">register.allstartlink.org</a>
, that script either connect to the actual asterisk
cli and parse / save the output of the iax2 show
registry command.. or get the info on a sql server
connected to the asterisk server. so that is how the
allstalink system create the rpt_extnodes-temp that is
fetch by the rc.updatenodelist tat is used by app_rpt
to know where are all the nodes.. well that is how I
think this done.. If I am wrong please advise me..</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So how would one little group of club would go to
creat something like that?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am pretty sure we would need to create a central
server on a fix ip adress or domain name. that can be
done..</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>then on that server we would need to create iax2
trunk for all the nodes. those trunk would have all
different node number and passwords.. (maybe in
iax.conf ??) then I am lost</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyone been there? I dont want to create a
competing network to allstarlink, I want to create a
small automated private nets of repeater.. Not that I
dont like allstarlink, it is just that some of the
sysop here love the technology behind
app_rpt/asterisk. they just dont want to be on the big
network, and updatng ip adress when they chage is a
real pain.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>thanks for your time reading this.</div>
