BPQ and 44 IP's
by William Lewis 14 Jul '15

14 Jul '15

I'm hearing that the latest BPQ software can do 44.x.x.x IP Addressing? Can anyone confirm this? If so, I have a friend in Nevada that wants to set up his BPQ station to link with me using our 44.x.x.x numbers.

shorewall help ?
by Maiko Langelaar 12 Jul '15

12 Jul '15

Greetings, I've been forced to change my main router to shorewall (I can go another route, but right now I'm just evaluating the situation), and as a result I have lost a few things that I have become a bit too used to over the past few years. Like having a DMZ host direct to my JNOS and being able to pass ip-ip direct to it. I have not figured out how to dmz to my jnos (2 ports on the shorewall, not 3) yet or how to pass ipip through ... Anyone on the list done this already ? I would appreciate some working examples, thank you. Maiko Langelaar / VE4KLM

21st Century and SMTP ?? Pretty wrong, so I think you don't know anything about H-Addressing. First off, SMTP (email) is just like someones home phone number. If you dial the wrong phone number, you either get the wrong house, or you get none at all. Same with email. If you don't have the 100% correct email address, the message doesn't get through at all, or winds up in the wrong persons in-box. With H-Addressing, YOU DON'T HAVE TO KNOW THE EXACT ADDRESS! That's one of the many beautiful things about packet messaging forwarding. Let me explain.... My packet address looks like this KG6BAJ(a)KG6BAJ.#NCA.CA.USA.NOAM. The ".#NCA.CA.USA.NOAM" is the Hierarchical part of the address. The ".#NCA"denotes SUBSECTION of the state (in this case Northern CAlifornia), then the state "CAlifornia (.CA)", then the Country (.USA), then the continent of North America (.NOAM). With HAddressing, Someone really doesn't need to know the precise address like you do with phone & email (The SMTP you refer too). Someone wants to send me packet mail, they really only need just a part of my address, which they could guess by running my callsign through something like QRZ. Someone could send me a packet mail addressed to "KG6BAJ@.#USA.NOAM" (notice the huge difference from KG6BAJ(a)KG6BAJ.#NCA.CA.USA.NOAM). Properly configured NOS/FBB/Misc full service BBS's then can at least determine that the message is intended for USA, in North America, and forward the message along. Since my BBS is in fact located within USA, in North America, then I'll get the message, and drop it in the correct mailbox. Try doing that with an SMTP (email) message. Just won't work. To those who don't fully understand the brilliants of Hierarchical I suppose it would seem antiquated. But nothing else gets that message through like packet radio and H-Addressing. And one another note, you state all NOS stations run SMTP. Also not true. It depends on if the sysop has built it in at time of compiling it features. And..... not all Full-Service BBS's run NOS.

Jerry, Are you talking about the BBS Hierarchical Addressing Protocol that is common with people running NOS BBS'es? ftp://ftp.tapr.org/bbssig/recommendations/hierarchical In all honesty from what I remember it's a lot of manual configuration, that really seems quaint to me since all the NOS programs also speak SMTP, the standard today. It would seem the same could be accomplished using SMTP standards by setting up some mail aliases. I'm going to recommend the TAPR NOS-BBS list for (Hierarchical forwarding) things of the non 21st century: https://www.tapr.org/mailman/listinfo/nos-bbs ---- Quote ---- Is there anything written on the operation of amper.org mail forwarding? We routinely run h-address packet mail forwarding and I see some ampr.org mail bulletins coming in from all over the world. I’m interested in the addressing, routing, and just how does this mail forward. I run Ubuntu Linux JNOS latest version. Jerry, N0MR

First, I have an ipset that is loaded with the list of allocated addresses within 44.137.0.0/16. You don't need to do that when you are behind the UCSD gateway, but we have a BGP-advertised /16 so we get a lot of crap for addresses that are not allocated. Then, there is an ipset that is loaded with addresses of persistent abusers like shodan.io. Finally, I have an ipset with those addresses for which the user has indicated that they want to receive inbound connections from outside 44.0.0.0/8. This works in combination with an iptables -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED entry that passes the traffic related to outgoing connections. As a lot of hams are not interested in providing connectivity to the large internet, this filter removes a lot of incoming traffic that would otherwise be blocked further down the path. (at their incoming firewall) The use of these ipset filters in the firewall is quite simple: # Drop traffic from abusers $ipt -A amprifwd -m set --match-set Hackers src -j DROP # Drop traffic for addresses not registered in DNS $ipt -A amprifwd -m set ! --match-set PAnet dst -j DROP # Allow related traffic $ipt -A amprifwd -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT # Drop traffic to stations that don't want incoming from internet to HAMnet $ipt -A amprifwd ! -s 44.0.0.0/8 -m set ! --match-set HAMnet dst -j DROP # Drop invalid traffic (not related to existing connections) except TCP close-down traffic $ipt -A amprifwd -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,FIN ACK,FIN -j ACCEPT $ipt -A amprifwd -p tcp --tcp-flags RST RST -j ACCEPT $ipt -A amprifwd -m state --state INVALID -j DROP # Accept remaining traffic $ipt -A amprifwd -j ACCEPT Of course you need to apply this filter to the FORWARD chain for traffic incoming on your tunnel interface and being forwarded to your radio interface. You can write such a filter (without the ESTABLISHED,RELATED part) for traffic forwarded outbound as well. E.g. to block traffic from nonregistered addresses. When loading the ipsets, it is important to note that you cannot delete a set that is in use in iptables. So I use this method (in a script that reloads the sets e.g. after an address update): ipset create HAMnet bitmap:ip range 44.137.0.0/16 2>/dev/null ipset create HAMnet_new bitmap:ip range 44.137.0.0/16 ipset flush HAMnet_new grep '^44\.137\.' hamnet | cut -f1 | while read ip do ipset add HAMnet_new $ip || echo "Failed to insert $ip in HAMnet_new" done ipset swap HAMnet_new HAMnet ipset destroy HAMnet_new 2>/dev/null This creates a new set, loads it with the data, then swaps it with the currently used set and destroys that one. This operation is allowed while the set is in use, and of course is preferred over just flushing the set and loading it, as during that brief time the filter could drop traffic. Rob
