GL.iNet openWRT Rip44 support?
by Tracy Markham 30 Dec '20

30 Dec '20

I had reached out to the good people at GL.iNet and asked for help getting one of their openWRT routers to run my 44 net assignment. I referred them to the page explaining openWRT setup ( wiki.ampr.org/wiki/Setting_up_a_gateway_on_OpenWRT) and requested they compile an executable for the processor in the router. Apparently they did it. It will be a bit before I can try to configure it but its a one click installation. It's available to anyone with a GL.iNet router product, just navigate to Applications -> Plugins and Update, then navigate to the R section. I have a screencap of all the dependencies it installed if anyone is interested. I reached out to them because I've failed on my previous attempts to set up an EdgerouterX for my assignment... I am by no means a network engineer, this is my foray into getting a gateway going. If anyone could confirm this works that would be great. If you're willing to help me get mine going that would be even better. Tracy N4LGH

NSP bugging me to use RPKI for my /24 grant
by Jeremy Cooper 10 Jun '20

10 Jun '20

Hello all, In 2018 I requested and received a /24 allocation and permission to announce it via BGP. My ISP/NSP, MonkeyBrains.net, very graciously agreed to route it to my house as part of my normal residential service. (Quite amazing!) Now, however, they’ve sent me an unusual request (but they are excited about it): can I please setup RPKI for my IP allocation, authorizing them (MonkeyBrains) permission to advertise the block? Full quote below: > Hi Jermy, > > We advertise a /24 for AMPRNET. Please setup a ROA record on ARIN authorizing us to advertise that block. (We just learned how to do this for our IPs yesterday and are exctied about RPKI. > > > > If you haven't set up RPKI for your IP allocations, here are the steps in a nutshell: > > create SSL key > upload to ARIN > Create ROA (image below) > Thanks, > > Rudy > > HOW-TO on ARIN: > https://www.arin.net/resources/manage/rpki/hosted/#roarequestkeypair <https://slack-redir.net/link?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.arin.net%2Fresources%2Fm…> > I don’t think this is going to work as I don’t _OWN_ my block. It is licensed to me for a 5 year period. As such, there’s no record of my allocation with ARIN, and hence, nothing that I can assign. Do any of you network gurus have a sufficiently technically advanced response I can give the ISP for their request? 73, -Jeremy Cooper

Mikrotik help needed
by Ian Redden 29 May '20

29 May '20

Hi All; When trying to connect, the IPIP tunnel on my Mikrotik box is flapping. I am using Mikrotik OS 6.46.6. It connects, shows as registered/running, but after a random period of time, the link goes down. Eventually it reconnects and the entire process starts over again. While connected however, I am able to see the RIP routes. Configuration: /interface ipip add allow-fast-path=no local-address=24.xx1.xx4.44 name=ucsd-gw remote-address=169.228.34.84 Any ideas? Speed Test: https://cogeco-on.speedtestcustom.com/result/baacd8c0-a027-11ea-8085-870a92… Ian / VA3IAN

WWconvers Hub_NA
by Charles J. Hargrove 21 May '20

Looking to add another dimension to your BBS? Consider offering a chatroom to your users. There are several groups that meet worldwide on various channels, some channels are used locally for events/nets/emcomm and there are some that act as tech support for ham radio software programs. Here in NYC we use 14736 every Monday night as an alternate way to check-in to our weekly emcomm net (especially when encountering jammers). There is even a growing movement to use state or country-based channel numbers that reflect their 44net assignments like 4468 in NY, 4440 in UT, etc. Various packet bbs packages have chat capability built-in. I know of at least one station looking to incorporate it into FBB, but I have no information on that system. Connection to Hub_NA is easy. Use 44.68.41.2 (gw.n2nov.ampr.org). We currently have stations across the USA and Canada connected to Hub_NA. Come join us, ask questions and share your tips/tricks/ideas! -- Charles J.

Some config error in ampraddr
by Rob Janssen 20 May '20

20 May '20

Since today I get error reply mails from amprgw-adm-owner(a)caida.org on the mail I send to ampraddr(a)gw.ampr.org for DNS updates, which indicate that my mail is somehow forwarded to a mailing list at caida where I am not a member, and thus not allowed to mail: You have tried to post to a list you are not subscribed to. Only members are allowed to post to this list. It appears that the update itself is correctly processed, I get the confirmation mail, but also an error message. Anyone knows what is going on there?

Routing from and to the internet
by Elias Basse 10 May '20

10 May '20

I have just completed setup on a ubiquiti router and am wanting to configure a host for some digital radio services behind the router but wish to use the 44 addresses out to the public internet to allow hotspots and repeaters to connect. Is anyone familiar with setting this up? From the server I am able to reach the internet but it is going out through an address from the isp rather than the 44 address. I used the ampr-ripd script from the wiki and can ping other 44 addresses. Hopefully this is possible, I have had my office allow use of some server and network hardware for ham radio. Best Regards Elias Kd5jfe Sent from my iPhone
