BPQ32 config question


 

How do I get the linbpq node to broadcast all the node services (Node, chat, BBS etc) in the Netrom node broadcast ..... so far I only get the actual node-ssid/alias broadcast?
?
Thanks, and Happy New Year

A couple of things..
?
Att he end of a MAP line be sure thers is a B.? That will broadcast the node information to this connection.
?
Besure you have BROADCAST NODES in your AXIP port configuration.? (Or other port you have netrom connections on)
?
Finally, be sure you have an alias for your node and each defined application in the APPLICATION lines.

The node does not seem to like the BROADCAST statement in the port definition!

I get an error at node startup indicating "Source record not recognized: BROADCAST NODES"

I forget there also needs to be an NODESINTERVAL statement in your main configuration.?

Make sure you have call, alias and quality (normally 255) in the end of the APPLICATION lines

It sounds like you are sending a broadcast, but you want all of your local nodes to be included. Normally I do that by setting the MINQUAL=254 in the port.? If it is set to 255, I believe that will result in sending only the main node as you are seeing. Normally if I want to send a nodes broadcast on VHF, I set the quality to something lower than my internet/AXIP port such as 160. That's a personal preference, however.

Thanks I missed adding the quality parameter it was set as zero!
