Hello,
Just got started on AMPR 44Net. Currently I have a /28 block and using
Raspberry Pi 4 as my IPIP gateway at home OTH. My set up is Verizon FiOS
Verizon Router (for all none Ham stuffs) > DMZ
from Verizon router to
192.xx.xx.144 (my Raspberry Pi gateway).
Raspberry eth0 is 44.xx.xx.1 as gateway and eth1 is 44.xx.xx.14 as tunl0
for my Ham stuffs. My eth1 is connected to a 16 ports Ethernet switch to
supply the connections to all my Ham stuffs.
So far everything is working well. I was able to request an IP in the
range of 44.xx.xx.2 – 44.xx.xx.13 no problem. Later a friend will help me
setting up a Mikrotik router, I just had to order one first. For right now
Raspberry pi is what I will be using.
I have some questions that I was not sure or could not really find the
answer to specific questions.
Can I move my gateway over to VPS somewhere? Or the VPS setup is for the
larger block not for individual home use.
You could, but you would still need to get it back to your 'ham stuff'
which would likely mean creating a VPN between the VPS and something at
home. A Wireguard server installed on your VPS and Wireguard clients on
your 'ham stuff' or a router to which your 'ham stuff' is attached
should
work.
If I could do this using VPS then I could rent
one up, no problem. I
would also need some sort of the instruction or guidance on how to set this
up using VPS service instead of a Raspberry Pi at home QTH.
A VPS is going to have an OS installed, if its Ubuntu for example, there
are good instructions on the Wiki (
https://wiki.ampr.org/wiki/Main_Page) --
then there is the getting it attached to your 'ham stuff' needs set up,
like I mentioned above.
The instruction I found is more like the set up for /24 BPG type of
thing. I do not have a use for that many IP addresses.
Have you reviewed the Wiki? For an IPIP tunnel setup, ignore the BGP
instructions.
Another question is I have 2 blocks of addresses,
obviously they were on a
different subnet. Could I use one Raspberry Pi gateway, one gateway
address? If that is possible, how do I add the 2nd block of IP range to my
existing Raspberry Pi gateway setup or later on Mikrotik box?
Why 2 blocks? How that would be all setup depends on a lot of variables in
between. Set one up first and then come back.
