Re: [44net] Testers/Consideration/Inquiry - Coordinating the Private AS Numbers

Rob, - I'm not certain how one can reach portal.ampr.org before establishing an Internet connection first - You stated: "This is not a task of AMPRGR but of portal.ampr.org..." The Portal is simply a backend to configure AMPRGW itself; and specifically in the case of IPIP tunnels using RIP44. In the future it plans to add DNS functionality, but keep in mind, this is just merely a website - I'm not sure how a DNS zone file relates to real-time connectivity to a network - AMPRGW is not the ideal route to all subnets because it is not the most geographically closest AMPRNet node with an Internet connection. If other nodes were setup in the manner I'd like to test, any node willing to establish a session could potentially be a closer node - You note again "we have a full mesh:" ***Then please test by pinging MY gateway VIA N1URO's***. In your testing, do not connect directly to me or use AMPRGW. I will DOWN my tunl0 interface and only connect to another AMPR station with AMPRGW connectivity - via RF or over a VPN connection. + it's my understanding this would fail - STAR + you imply that it should work - MESH 73, - KB3VWG
