Carrying 10 MHz reference clock over network ? (full message)

by Toussaint OTTAVI

Hi all, (Here's my full post, one line disappeared in the previous one) I'm thinking about building a GPS-disciplined 10 MHz reference oscillator. Of course, I'd like to add some networking features to it :-) NTP server is the most obvious, and is well documented. But I'd like to be able to carry 10 MHz reference signal to various locations in the shack over network cabling. My first idea is about using existing converters for TV/SAT : - RF to Ethernet passive couplers (a F connector tied to pins 1-2 of a RJ45 connector, $1 on Chinese warehouses). - RF to fiber adapters (such as those used in FTTH/CATV). But a first look shows frequency range is 50-1000 MHz. Anyway, I do not have any idea about whether it will work or not while maintaining the reference/stability purpose of the 10 MHz signal. Any suggestions ? HNY & 73 de TK1BI

IPIP mesh with VyOS on Vultr

by John Burwell

I am attempting to get connected from VyOS, and I seem to have several pieces in place, but I am not able to ping any hosts across any IPIP tunnels. I can ping amprgw.ucsd.edu across the public Internet. I have configured a `tun44` interface. I have ampr-ripd running, and it receives updates every five minutes. The resulting routes appear in my routing table, and if I do `ip route get` on 44-net hosts, it shows them routing through my `tun44` interface. But if I try to ping 44-net hosts or access them at all, I get timeouts. What might I be missing? My gateway public IP is 155.138.247.113. My allocated subnet is 44.31.64.1/27. I created a firewall group named ALLOW-ALL with a default rule set to 'accept' just to rule that out for troubleshooting. Tunnel interface configuration: tunnel tun44 { > address 44.31.64.1/32 > description AMPRNET > disable-link-detect > encapsulation ipip > firewall { > in { > name ALLOW-ALL > } > local { > name ALLOW-ALL > } > out { > name ALLOW-ALL > } > } > mtu 1450 > multicast enable > remote 0.0.0.0 > source-address 155.138.247.113 > } ampr-ripd startup output: root@vyos:/home/vyos# ampr-ripd -svd -i tun44 > Using metric 0 for routes. > Using TCP window 840 for routes. > Using routing table 'main' (254). > Loaded 738 entries from /var/lib/ampr-ripd/encap.txt > Max list size: 1000 entries > Detected tunnel interface address: 44.31.64.1 > Interface detected: lo, IP: 127.0.0.1 > Interface detected: eth0, IP: 155.138.247.113 > Interface detected: tunl0, IP: 0.0.0.0 > Interface detected: tun44, IP: 44.31.64.1 > Assigned tunnel interface index: 5 > Local IPs: > 127.0.0.1 > 155.138.247.113 > 44.31.64.1 > Using gateway 155.138.246.1 for direct 44net endpoints via interface eth0. > Setting routes (738). > Creating multicast RIP UDP listening socket. > Setting up multicast interface. > Waiting for RIPv2 broadcasts... > Broadcasts eventually start appearing. Before I run ampr-ripd, here's the route I get for 44.0.0.1 — over the public Internet: 44.0.0.1 via 155.138.246.1 dev eth0 src 155.138.247.113 uid 0 And I can ping 44.0.0.1 in this state. After I run ampr-ripd, here's the route to 44.0.0.1 — over the tunnel: 44.0.0.1 via 169.228.34.84 dev tun44 src 44.31.64.1 uid 1003 And I can no longer ping 44.0.0.1 — it just times out: vyos@vyos:~$ ping 44.0.0.1 interface tun44 > PING 44.0.0.1 (44.0.0.1) from 44.31.64.1 tun44: 56(84) bytes of data. > ^C > --- 44.0.0.1 ping statistics --- > 4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 88ms This is all on VyOS 1.3 equuleus (Debian buster), hosted at Vultr. Any ideas, or other troubleshooting suggestions? Thanks very much!

Request for official clarification from ampr.net BOD

by Kevin Walsh

It would be most helpful if the amprnet BOD could post in writing an official statement regarding using common secure communications (https. TLS etc.) over the 44. IP network. This email list is used for communications regarding the use of the IP address space. I'm not asking about the use of encryption over part 97 RF radio, just the 44 network IP address space. I am not aware of any portion of the Part 97 rules that apply to the wired internet at large. Everyone has an opinion, but it's time for the amprnet Board to clarify the muddy waters around the use of the amprnet IP space and publish those rules. Please! 73, Kevin Walsh W8KHW

Re: [44net] DN42 for 44net?

by John Burwell

> > Thanks for sharing. I see this has been around a while, but I hadn’t run into it myself yet. Apple is currently doing something like this with IPSEC and IPv6 for iCloud users; pretty much any iCloud user is always on a private VPN with all their other iCloud devices. And there are commercial enterprise SD-WAN products and cloud providers that offer a similar approach for SMBs and branch offices. Azure and AWS offer almost exactly this between virtual networks, data centers, and regions, down to the private ASNs. It’s nice to see a project built on open standards for the express purpose of playing with it and learning about it. Seems very much like something 44net could benefit from studying carefully.

DN42 for 44net?

by KUN LIN

https://dn42.dev/Home Just discover this new thing where it will create mesh networks and even BGP via VPN tunnels. This maybe an interesting way for 44net to considering implement. dn42 is a big dynamic VPN<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network>, which employs Internet technologies (BGP<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bgp>, whois database, DNS<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System>, etc). Participants connect to each other using network tunnels (GRE<https://dn42.dev/howto/GRE-on-FreeBSD>, OpenVPN<https://dn42.dev/howto/openvpn>, WireGuard<https://dn42.dev/howto/wireguard>, Tinc<https://dn42.dev/howto/tinc>, IPsec<https://dn42.dev/howto/IPsec-with-PublicKeys>) and exchange routes thanks to the Border Gateway Protocol. Network addresses are assigned in the 172.20.0.0/14 range and private AS numbers are used (see registry<https://dn42.dev/services/Whois>) as well as IPv6 addresses from the ULA-Range (fd00::/8) – Kun

Additional Services Idea

by Kris Kirby

Another suggestion I'll make is that beyond support Dynamic DNS for various use cases, to allow end users to manipulate thier own forward and reverse DNS records and tie that functionality in with dynamic DNS. -- Kris Kirby, KE4AHR Disinformation Architect, Systems Mangler, & Network Mismanager

Potential commercial use / TOS violation 44.144.50.0/24

by Jeremy Cooper

Hi all, I’d like the ARDC to investigate and possibly revoke the assignment for 44.144.50.0/25 due its use for commercial purposes. I’m a long time member of the group here but I’m also heavily involved in the Helium radio-based blockchain. I’ve noticed three Helium “hotspots” or “miners” that are using this allocation. While I am personally a fan of Helium, I don’t think its use is permissible on the AMPRNet as Helium hotspots do earn monetary compensation for being connected to the Internet. As a responsible AMPR block recipient myself, I feel it’s important that we continue to honor the ARDC’s rules for the AMPR space, and this is one of them. The hotspots in question are: * zany-pecan-kitten at 44.144.50.71 (https://explorer.helium.com/hotspots/112en278X7KpSMfgH9JMnEfkfLSsi2osRjJ1mL…) * petite-flint-bird at 44.144.50.73 (https://explorer.helium.com/hotspots/11bkMgWVDYSteuq1fLvowC9z4BVReQrXNGCq4F…) * furry-pine-raccoon at 44.144.50.74 (https://explorer.helium.com/hotspots/112TRAzGUMNvEYEtHawWymZTA4cX9BWu9QFw1v…) Sincerely, Jeremy Cooper (KE6JJJ)

It wasn’t until I had already sent the message that I saw that the entire list was still CC’d. My apologies, but also a modicum of understanding is also deserved, too.
