IPGATEWAY ax.25 rf only
|
Hi,
?
Trying to configure ax.25 tcp on rf port...No tunnels,? no access past Linbpq and rf ports. I have went over and over what John has out as an example but Linbpq crashes when I Enable IPGATEWAY..
?
So as usual I'm sure this is a lack of understanding on my part :(... Looking for an actual in use example for rf ax.25 tcp config..
?
Thxs

I think I understand what you are trying to do. Even if you are not using tunnels, etc. and only need to run IP over ax25 via a radio, you still need to run the "full fledged" IPGATEWAY feature. You just won't be using all of it. In other words, you still need to enable the tunnel or tap and RIP even if they are not used. Using the BPQ documentation as a baseline, first I don't know if you are using Windows or Linux, so I'm leaving both options available. If Windows, you need to ID the Ethernet adapter using the bpqadapters executable that comes with the Windows version of BPQ. IPGATEWAYHave fun, and I hope I have understood your goal. Lee K5DAT

I believe the above is probably the answer !... I misunderstood John wiseman? in his saying to ignore the encap and statements for the nat ...will try it again with full statements this time... Well after I track down what ever I broke in my forwarding to other bbs...I guess if you play to much murphy will get you :)

Using 32bit raspberry os pi4 ... I am at the point of needing to start fresh again with the BBS. Have a ardop hf port but don't have the radio hooked up yet.. I moved this year to far northern central Nevada this year and am trying to put it all back together. It is completely solar powered with the internet portion of it through starlink. That in itself is enough to pull your hair out LOL.. Thxs to Mark for the work around to that issue well as long as I don't break it :(...will update as soon as I get my mess cleaned up

OK when I am enable IPGATEWAY linbpq will not run.....

this is an older ver of raspberry os and i can rebuild with a newer one but it seems? that something would not run correctly with newer ver. just can't remember.

Good day. Here is the full configuration example on the BPQ website.? Note there are 4 asterisks at the end to mark where the IPGateway feature ends.? There are several BPQ features that use this methodology. I think you are missing that last line perhaps because it was not in my previous message. IPGATEWAY

When you comment out the IPGATEWAY statement it may render the others unrecognized, thus the error.? Use a multi-line comment when commenting out the IPGATEWAY section:
?
/*
IPGATEWAY
Adapter eth0 44ENCAP 100.64.1.223 IPAddr 10.0.0.1 IPNetmask 255.255.255.0 IPPorts 2 ARP 10.0.0.10 KD6MTU-2 2 D NONODEFAULTROUTE ****
*/
?
?
But, I think perhaps you may have luck if you reduce the section to it's most simple form:
?
IPGATEWAY
Adapter eth0 44ENCAP 100.64.1.223 IPAddr 10.0.0.1 IPNetmask 255.255.255.0 IPPorts 4 ****
?
?
If this works then you can start adjusting.? If it does not show us the errors it produces.? It may be in the IP addresses used, or perhaps something else..

Oh those 4 asterisks LOL, well that made a difference... now to the next issues :)
?
I wiped the pi and started with bookworm 32bit lite....all went well. installed linbpq went well. all is working good. AXIP master/slave circuits are working good over starlink now (side note had to upgrade n6pnk bbs)? So clean everything. Can access the bbs through the rf port.
?
heres what I have now, that I am starting to work my way through:

sudo setcap "CAP_NET_ADMIN=ep CAP_NET_RAW=ep CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE=ep" linbpq I think you may be missing the above command from the linbpq documentation. The above assumes you have renamed the pilinbpq binary to linbpq.? If that's not it, then are you sure the adapter name is still eth0? 73 Lee K5DAT?

Now trying to ping the bbs from a pi5 bookworm 64bit... direwolf /? tncattach with setup for ip with 10.0.0.10/24 and bbs with 10.0.0.1/24.
?
pi desktop pings out rf interface correctly,? no response from bbs. While logged into bbs remotely I ping from within linbpq and bbs will ping out on port 1... neither will answer.
?
I know not alot of info here, mainly giving setup... Coming from networking engineering side of life I know what to expect from a eithernet response.?
?
Trying to take in consideration the time delay of 1k2 rf ;) I wonder if my expectations are invalid ?. Or how Linbpq responds on that port. Does linbpq respond to pings, I can ping out from the term of bbs and radio will keyup and I can see it then on the direwolf screen..of other packet unit.
?
Any ideas
