Sean,
If you are using the AMPR VPN listed on the services wiki site, it uses
the allocation given to its operator.
You MUST setup an IPENCAP tunnel, or have your subnet routed over the
global Internet via BGP.
You might be able to have your allocation directed to the VPN operator
(callsign - OH7LZB) and then arrange for him to route your IPs to the
tunnel connection you have established between him. Please be advised,
out of all the options, this one is not regularly supported. In
addition, your latency would be extremely poor, since you appear to be
in the United States and the VPN endpoint is in Finland. Lastly, from
what I observed, the AMPR VPN appears to be a Layer 3 VPN (not Layer 2).
This means that more detailed configuration (on part of the operator)
may be required to route multiple IPs to your VPN instance - my
understanding is that the VPN is maintained on a volunteer basis.
What issue(s) are you having getting "[IPENCAP] over to the VM"?
I ran my AMPR router as an Ubuntu VM for many years before migrating it
to an actual hardware border router running OpenWRT; perhaps I can assist.

I recently setup a AMPR NET VPN with openvpn in a OpenVZ container due to
the fact I couldn't figure out how to get IPIP over to the VM.
My question is this, I have a weird ip a 44.x.x.x number and I want to be
able to use my given IP of 44.102.204.32, can I route my IP over the given
one from the VPN?
I'm using Ubuntu in the container and the routing for the VPN is working
just fine. I want to setup linBPQ32 with this IP and start routing this way
if I can.
I'm pretty good with Linux, but not so much with routing. I setup a ampr
interface and gave it my 44.102.204.32 IP, but from their I am stuck.

Hi there
We got permission to use our local university network for ham radio
We plan to connect our DMR repeater to this network (some ports needed to be opened to allow the repeater to connect to the server)
In adddiotion i want to place a AmprNET IPIP gateway there
The University protected by firewall no outgoing and no incomming packets free flow..
What should I tell the IT person to open in order to allow gateway to run ?
Does Firewall have IPIP protocole definition ?
if not ... what should they open ? Outbond and inbond and from /to UCSD 44 Net Router ?
Please Advice
Thanks Forward

I think precisely this is the reason why such addresses should be rejected:
The user may have the wrong assumption that the address to be entered here is
the address of the system terminating the tunnel, while in reality it has to be the
internet-visible address that supposedly is NATted to the tunnel gateway.
So, what happens in the local infrastructure does not matter.

I just spotted this entry in the latest encap file:
route addprivate 44.74.0.128/28 encap 192.168.0.2
Unless you're doing something highly unusual, setting your
gateway address in the portal to 192.168.0.2 probably is a
mistake since it's not reachable from the Internet.

First I wanted to mention I am glad to read Bjorn's message about
adding some content to the network.
Keeping in contact is key. Be that a coordinator or any host on the
amprnet. Seems every few months on here we are discussing how someone
is sending out random packets, and a straight forward way to get a
hold of people would be helpful.
Some time back it was brought up to have a whois server or something
like that. I bet I can guess the status of that.
As for everyone having an ampr.org email address, perhaps a forwarding
service like the arrl.net addresses? Then there is the possible spam
problem, and the fact that someone would need to set up such a
service.
Overall a lot of good ideas are brought up on this list, so few ever
happen. The only solution I am offering is everyone should help
spread the word and try and get more people involved with moving this
network forward. I wish I had better coding skills.
One of the core problems at least in my country where the ampr/44net
space is not well utilized is the lack of higher speed equipment to
build a network. You really have to be part of a well organized club
with site connections to do anything microwave on any big scale from
what I have seen.
Hello All,
I recently had a power supply problem and it has let the smoke out of my
PacComm TNC-320 packet modem.
While I have the manual, I do not have a circuit diagram and only have a
partial id on one of the cooked ICs U17.
The partial number is MC xxxxx06P (I think) and is on the main board across
the RS-232 D9 connector circuit.
Could you check your circuit diagram, parts list or slide off the cover and
have a look and let me know what the U17 IC is please?
Many Thanks

Hello all,
If you may have noticed, there is a recent IPIP tunnel with a 44net
gateway (which you may have seen flapping on your Mikrotik routers -
44.130.120.0/24 via 44.130.120.65).
This is a experimental setup to allow tunneling via BGP announced 44net
gateways, with no real hosts there yet.
Ampr-ripd newer than 1.13 will ignore this RIP broadcast (an update will
be available soon).
Our first step to make it run on Mikrotik routers (this will stop the
route flapping):
Announcing the Mikrotik RIPv2 AMPR Gateway Setup Script 3.0 (21.Jan.2017)
- Added support for tunnels with BGP announced 44net endpoints
If you already use v.2.x, only update ampr_gw and from the archive file
and add manually the new parameter "AmprDefaultGw" to your config file
(see the example file in the archive).
"AmprDefaultGw" can be set to your gateway WAN interface name or the
correct gateway IP for your router.

Is there a good forum to discuss packet, AX.25 and such things? After some 20 years of abstinence from packet I am really interested in getting something going. In my area APRS is alive and well, but packet on VHF or UHF is dead and has been dead for a long time. Lots of equipment is still out there, such as KPC-3 and the like, just not being used.
Although I am very interested in getting packet going again, I have no idea where to start. Got hardware to spare, but where to start? What’s out there for software (OpenBCM, JNOS, BPQ32, what else?)…
I realize that this is probably not the avenue to discuss, but perhaps someone can point me in the right direction of where to start looking, where to ask.
Thanks,
Adi
