DNS handling
by Toshiyuki Mabuchi 24 Apr '24

24 Apr '24

Hi there, I would like to rewrite or add my DNS entry for ampr.org. I'd requested via the new portal as a Ticket, but still unassigned. I think I must have the authority to modify it. Can anyone help me ? regards, Toshiyuki JF3LGC -- Toshiyuki MABUCHI jf3lgc(a)gmail.com

Re: Waiting for RIPv2 broadcasts
by Chris 23 Apr '24

Hi Kun, The RIP broadcasts are sent as encapsulated multicast packets over the tunnel from the UCSD gateway server on 44.0.0.1 to your tunnel endpoint, so you need the tunnel setup before RIP44d can receive these broadcasts. I am assuming you are using some flavour of Linux as your gateway machine, if so as a minimum you would need to: modprobe ipip ip addr add 44.x.x.x dev tunl0 ip link set dev tunl0 up where 44.x.x.x is your tunnel endpoint IP. Then you can run the find_pass.sh script, which is just a one liner: ampr-ripd -d -v -i tunl0 I use Debian 12 and this is how I have my gateway setup, hope it helps... I use systemd to start everything up automatically after a reboot: /etc/systemd/system/amprgw.service [Unit] Description=AMPRNet After=network-online.target Wants=network-online.target [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=true ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/ampr_start.sh ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/ampr_stop.sh [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target After creating this file you need to run “systemctl daemon-reload” followed by “systemctl enable amprgw” and “systemctl start amprgw” Here is the ampr_start.sh script: #!/bin/sh PWD=“<the RIP44d password>" LOCATION="G1FEF@IO91mk" AMPR_OUR_LAN="44.63.7.208/29" AMPR_OUR_TUN="44.63.7.215" EXT_INTERFACE="enp1s0" INT_INTERFACE="enp2s0" TUN_INTERFACE="tunl0" # Enable IP Forwarding sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 # Enable IPIP tunnel and interface modprobe ipip ip addr add $AMPR_OUR_TUN dev $TUN_INTERFACE # Set some tunnel interface options # * Give the tunnel its own TTL of 64 hops enabling traceroute over the tunnel # * Bring up the interface # * Set the tunnel MTU ip tunnel change ttl 64 mode ipip $TUN_INTERFACE ip link set dev $TUN_INTERFACE up ifconfig $TUN_INTERFACE mtu 1480 # Set AMPRNet routing table rules # * Any packets from any AMPRNet space use routing table 44 # * Any packets from my AMPRNet space use routing table 44 ip rule add to 44.0.0.0/9 table 44 priority 44 ip rule add to 44.128.0.0/10 table 44 priority 44 ip rule add from $AMPR_OUR_LAN table 44 priority 45 # Set AMPRNet routes # * Default route out of AMPRNet is 169.228.34.84 # * Set local route for AMPRNet on local AMPRNet interface ip route add default dev $TUN_INTERFACE via 169.228.34.84 onlink table 44 ip route add $AMPR_OUR_LAN dev $INT_INTERFACE table 44 # Rest of the routes are added dynamically by the AMPR-RIPD routing Daemon. /usr/sbin/ampr-ripd -s -r -t 44 -i $TUN_INTERFACE -a $AMPR_OUR_LAN -p $PWD -L $LOCATION and the ampr_stop.sh script #!/bin/bash NET_AMP="44.63.7.208/29" NIC_AMP="enp2s0.44" NIC_TUN="tunl0" ### DISABLE IP FORWARDING ### sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=0 ### Take the tunnel offline ### ifconfig $NIC_TUN down ### Remove the table 44 routes ### ip route delete default dev $NIC_TUN via 169.228.34.84 onlink table 44 # Deletes local 44 network from Table 44 #ip route delete $NET_AMP dev $NIC_AMP table 44 ### STOPS THE ampr-ripd ROUTER DAMEON killall -KILL ampr-ripd 73, Chris - G1FEF > On 23 Apr 2024, at 09:23, KUN LIN <dnwk(a)linkun.info> wrote: > > Hi Chris, > I should setup tunnel interference before running find_password.sh?

Waiting for RIPv2 broadcasts
by KUN LIN 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

I am trying to setup IPIP tunnel following instructions on wiki and can't move beyond "waiting for RIPv2 broadcasts". When I run tcpdump, I do have something. tcpdump -nni eth0 proto 4 tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v[v]... for full protocol decode listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), snapshot length 262144 bytes 18:15:00.559893 IP 169.228.34.84 > 23.94.*.*(my gateway ip): IP 44.0.0.1.520 > 224.0.0.9.520: RIPv2, Response, length: 504 18:15:39.222805 IP 79.190.68.116 > 23.94.*.*(my gateway ip): IP 0.0.0.0.5678 > 255.255.255.255.5678: UDP, length 103 So, it looks like I am getting some RIPv2 broadcast, but it doesn't seem like ampr-ripd is processing these broadcasts? Any help would be appricated. Thanks Kun Lin

Charles,On April 6, Chris noted to me that 44.00.0.1 would stop having nameserver functionality in the future. This is a concern, as I don't know of another Authoritative Name Server for AMPR.ORG and 44.in-addr.arpa capable of Zone Transfer.Despite this, I have not yet been given an updated AMPRNet nameserver to reconfigure DNS-MDC.AMPR.ORG before that decommissioning.73,LynwoodKB3VWG -------- Original message --------From: "Charles J.

Requesting New Allocations Is Incomplete
by Charles J. Hargrove 19 Apr '24

19 Apr '24

I just received email and then a phone call from a person that wanted to join one of our networks in the Northeast USA for the purposes of routing Echolink, repeaters and more. When logging onto the "new" AMPR portal, they were given only a choice of a few subnets based on a dropdown list of intended uses. None of them jived with the networks in any of the individual states or countries. I would suggest spreading the word that all requests for new or expanded allocations be held up until things can be straightened out. It seems that their small volunteer force is unable to keep up with the workload since the changeover on April 3rd. I personally have over a dozen tickets unassigned and even one from 4/3. Everyone just standby and chill until they figure things out. No need to expect steak when they are working with hamburger. I just jumped on the AMPR portal and found only these choices: IPIP Tunnel Mesh 44.63.0.0/16 BGP Direct Announce 44.32.0.0/16 Radio 44.61.0.0/16 Globally Unique 44.61.0.0/16 General Address 44.61.0.0/16 AREDN - contact AREDN directly HAMNET - contact HAMNET directly in Europe HAMWAN - contact HAMWAN directly -- Charles J.

New portal, LoT score and new subnet
by Răzvan Zeceș 15 Apr '24

15 Apr '24

Hello all, I'm using the AMPRnet since the old portal and I have a couple of questions about how to convert an already allocated /24 subnet under my account, because the new LoT that blocks the possibility to acquire a new subnet since the LoT points are just a few (25 in my case). I already have a /24 allocated to my account, which I'm ready to give up since it's set up as an IPIP tunnel and I requested it to be changed to a BGP-routed subnet. - I received the response that it cannot be converted to a BGP subnet, but I can give it up and request a new one that will be setup as a BGP from the beginning. - My question is, how can I do that? I've requested an update on the ticket but no update since ±4 days ago. My current limit is a /28 subnet, which I cannot request via BGP, since the smallest subnet that can be allocated via BGP is a /24. I don't know where to reach out and pursue this situation, since the ticketing area seems to be a dead end on these "non-KB" issues. I would really appreciate any advice/support or any ideas, since I'm stuck on "procuring" the new subnet (for the BGP) and giving up the actual IPIP tunnel-subnet. -- Thank you, 73's YO6RZV (Razvan) Web: https://yo6rzv.ro Mail: yo6rzv(a)gmail.com / razvan(a)yo6rzv.ro

Regarding subdomains and DNS records
by Rebecca Key 10 Apr '24

10 Apr '24

Hi 44Net Community, Over the past week since launch, we've seen some questions come up about subdomains and DNS. I'm writing to share some information that aims to address some of those questions. The new portal allows members to manage their own DNS records. You can also claim any existing DNS records under ampr.org in the zonefile. However, there are some caveats to this new functionality. To avoid confusion, below is some information for managing DNS records and/or claiming any existing DNS records: Option 1 (Preferred): If you already have one or more DNS records in the ampr.org DNS and they are under a subdomain that consists of your callsign, the quickest and easiest way to get them assigned to your account is to place a request for a subdomain. You can do this by selecting "My subdomains" from the "DNS" menu and then clicking on the "Request a subdomain" button. On the next page, select "ampr.org" from the list of domains (it's the only one there at the moment), enter your callsign in the "Subdomain:" field, and then click "Create request". This will create a ticket for an admin to check. If your callsign is already verified, and you have requested a subdomain that is identical to your callsign, then the admin should simply approve the request, where any existing DNS records under the subdomain will automatically be pulled into your account. We advise you to keep an eye out for any "ticket updated" notifications should the admin have any questions. Once you receive a notification that your request has been approved, you can then select "My subdomains" from the "DNS" menu, where you should see your subdomain listed. If you click on the "Resource records" icon, you will be able to view all your DNS records as well as add new records under your subdomain. Option 2 (Recommended ONLY for certain use cases): Alternatively, there is another way to claim your existing DNS records; however, you should *only* use this method if you a) only have one record, or b) if you have multiple records that are not all under a callsign subdomain name (i.e., [callsign].ampr.org). If a) or b) apply, select "Domains" from the "DNS" menu, and then click on the "Resource records" icon next to the ampr.org domain. This will list all of ~50,000 existing records (don't worry, it will paginate them!). You can then use the "Search:" box to search for your records, as it performs a real time search and also works on partial entries. Once you have found your records, click on the "Claim" icon, which will create a new ticket for an admin to process. Keep an eye out for ticket updates, as the admin may wish to ask questions to clarify your request. If the admin is happy with your request, your request will be approved, and your DNS record will be assigned to your account. You can view the record by selecting "My records" from the "DNS" menu. Please note that this will *not* create a subdomain, just a standalone record that you can manage. IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN ONE RECORD UNDER A SUBDOMAIN, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS SECOND OPTION, AS IT WILL CREATE A NEW TICKET EACH TIME YOU CLICK THE "Claim" ICON !! As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out, and please report any bugs you run into at newportal(a)ardc.net, providing as much detail as you can about the bug. 73, Rebecca KO4KVG -- Rebecca Key - KO4KVG Communicaions Manager Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ardc.net

Hi all, my 44 IP addresses are changed. There shouldn't be any impact unless someone has any AXUDP links with my BPQ Node pointing to the IP Address directly. These are the new addresses, FQDN are the same: iw2ohx.ampr.org - 44.134.24.1 -> (X)net AXUDP links are welcome here / DXSpider links are welcome here iw2ohx-vpn.ampr.org - 44.134.27.1 -> (X)net AXUDP links are welcome here / DXSpider links are welcome here iw2ohx-bpq.ampr.org - 44.134.27.17 -> BPQ AXUDP links are welcome here 73 de iw2ohx Op.
