Re: SSID strategy
Thank you David. It's a little clearer now.
??I will take a look at that page - again. I was basically only following this page: , but it stops with setting up a node, FBB, etc. So the basis is there, but then integrating more capabilities is still a work-in-progress for you and ideally I would want to follow some examples or tutorials to get going. Saw a lot of info on this site, too: but haven't gotten around studying it all. ?? - Maybe you're looking to learn how all the pieces fit together and inter-operate?? Maybe you want to setup a very rich environment involving RF AX.25, AMPR IPIP mesh and BGP routing, etc. with learning the Linux AX.25 stack.? Then the Linux AX.25 stack is the way to go.Yes, this is what I want, so I'll skip JNOS and BPQ for now. Thanks again. 73 de Hans |

Re: SSID strategy
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHello Hans, Do I need to see SSIDs as an ID related to a system or a service? From what you wrote above the latter. But how does that work then? If on a system the ax.25 stack has SSID-1 and Linpac SSID-2 then how does a connecting station get routed to Linpac? All packets have to go through the ax.25 stack, so SSID-1, so towards the outside world there is no SSID-2. You could make SSID-2 visible to the outside world if you create a new port in axports, or am I not correct with that assumption. Yes.. you need to consider each CALLSIGN+SSID identifier as unique and once a program "claims" it, any packets being received for a specific CALLSIGN+SSID will be routed to that listening program to be processed.? By default, Linux's AX.25 setup usually doesn't run any daemons to connect to so a remote user could try to connect to any of your SSIDs and nothing will happen.? It's only once you install and configure a program to listen on a specific SSID will your system answer for that CALLSIGN+SSID combination.? Linpac is very flexible here as it can be configured to listen on one SSID or ALL of them (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, etc).? Linpac offers the ability to even share the same SSID and have two different F-keys using the same SSID as long as they are connected to different remote stations.? Beyond Linpac, the way you get other programs to register their use of a specific SSID is via the /etc/ax25/ax25d.conf file.? This is how you might enable programs like UroNode, FPAC, FBB, etc. I have a lot of this detailed in my HamPacket documentation:? ?? Still it works: just configured LinPac on my RPi (BX2ABT-1) with BX2ABT-2, -3 and -4 in init.mac, and had no problem connecting from my other machine (BX2ABT-10), creating 4 different sessions with BX2ABT-1, -2, -3 and -4 respectively. Yup.. that's expected.? As long as the CALLSIGN+SSID combinations are different, Linpac will manage them separately. Then thinking ahead: what if I want to add a mailbox, BBS, etc. Do these also come with their own configurations and choice of SSID? Of course.? Think of the Linux AX.25 network stack just like Linux TCP/IP stack.? AX.25 stack is only the base layer and you need to install applications on top of it to be usable.? In TCP/IP land, if you want a web server then you need to install, configure, and start say Apache HTTPD.? In AX.25 land, if you want a BBS like say FBB, you need to install and configure one. You mean FBB uses ax0 and JNOS ax1, etc... Why would you do that? You can create different ports in axports and use those, not? Think of the base "ax" interfaces as the physical layer that's connecting your Linux host to a specific radio operating on a specific frequency.? If you want your computer to simultaneously operate on another frequency (aka.. additional radios), you'll need to setup an additional AX.25 interfaces such as ax1, ax2, ax3, etc.? Please note that the same packet program that uses the Linux kernel's AX.25 stack can offer their services on multiple interfaces at the same time.? It's also worth mentioning that you can REUSE the same SSID number as long as they are being used on different AX.25 kernel interfaces (aka different radios).? For example: ?? Radio frequency? |? linux kernel interface? |? Linux kernel interface name? |? Program? |? Configured callsign+SSID ?? -----------------+--------------------------+-------------------------------+-----------+-------------------------- ??? 14.105????????? |? ax0 ? ????????????????? |? hfdrop?????????????????????? |?

BX2ABT-5 ?? 443.370????????? |? ax2???????????????????? |? uhfdrop????????????????????? |? FBB????? |? BX2ABT-1 That is just an example and you can make it either simpler or way more complex.? This is the power of Linux working for you.? Btw, notice I'm NOT talking about JNOS or BPQ32.? Why?? Because they have their own AX.25 stacks and don't depend on the Linux in-kernel AX.25 stack.? Yes, you *can* interconnect them if you wish but it's not required if you just want JNOS to run. Excuses for my lack of insight, I hope you do not too vexed about it. I'm not familiar at all with (computer) networking and right now I see a lot of pieces of a puzzle without an idea on how to connect them together. It's complicated stuff to me. No doubt, it's a lot to wrap your head around the first time but AX.25 networking is very similar to TCP/IP networking in many respects.? This is all an excellent way to learn about networking btw. BTW, I still don't know what my next step should be: I guess it's setting up node with ax25-node or uronode and then FBB. Or should I go straight to JNOS or BPQ32? What I wrote before, my aim is to understand this whole packet radio stuff and prefer KISS. Any ideas? Cheers! Solutions like BPQ32 and JNOS are excellent "vertical solutions" that can do almost everything within one program while also allowing for interconnections to say the LInux AX.25 stack or even other AX.25 solutions.? The flip side is they hide a lot of the networking concepts so you might not get to learn about them for the sake of simplicity? I suppose the answer comes down to what are you looking to do??? ?? - Do you just want something to work and be easy"?? BPQ32 or maybe JNOS might be the best option for you ?? - Maybe you're looking to learn how all the pieces fit together and inter-operate?? Maybe you want to setup a very rich environment involving RF AX.25, AMPR IPIP mesh and BGP routing, etc. with learning the Linux AX.25 stack.?

Service Discovery for AGWPE
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý
Greetings.
Now that I have fixed the Service Discovery client code in my APRS client YAAC so it can accept the DNS-SD postings by Direwolf (at least, on Linux systems with Avahi), I was wondering if Direwolf should also advertise its AGWPE port the same way. I propose
a new service type of _agwpe._tcp to handle the other port.

Re: SSID strategy
Hello David et al.
Thanks for all the replies and info. I know this topic is only marginally dealing with Direwolf, but I thought most people hanging out here are would be most knowledgeable about packet radio, so I hope you don't mind.

It's recommended to keep it unique from say a used SSID used by say Linpac or ax25d but it technically doesn't have to be.? I have seen some strange collisions when they were the same but I forget what the behavior is here.?

Re: SSID strategy - Not specifically direwolf related
Good Morning,

The "APRS standard" is not a standard; merely a recommendation. I scratched the scab off this one back in 2009 when I had VHF and HF APRS units in my 4WD. If I had followed the recommendations, I would have had -9 AND -15 transmitting from the same vehicle. This meant that in the scenario where I was out of VHF range (quite often back in those days), my 4WD would have been in 2 different places. Clearly this was not my intent. My solution was to use -9 for both VHF and HF, thus ensuring the location of my 4WD was known regardless of how the posits made it into the APRS network. Ian On 8/11/21 7:32 am, David Ranch wrote:

Re: SSID strategy
At one time I saw a listing of suggested uses of SSID numbers by application?but then I observed that in the maoin no one was following the suggestions. SSIDs are in principle abstract IDs and the system, if it is being polite, announces its capabilities in its broadcasts. There is a weak tendency for WINLINK stations to use the -10 SSID. Also remember that SSIDs need only be consistent in what I will term a usage space.? You can use say a -7 for APRS on 144.39 MHz perhaps?and reuse the -& on a BBS system in 440 MHz so long as their position?reports?do not get aggregated. Good luck with your testing!

SSID strategy
I have set up two ax.25 systems to play with and learn packet radio. There is no packet radio activity here at all - apart from some APRS - so my setup is for self-education purposes only.
System 1: TS-2000 / Kubuntu AMD64 + Direwolf System 2: Baofeng UV5R / Raspberry Pi4 + Direwolf Both systems are set up the same with a basic ax.25 stack and the latest version of LinPac, compiled locally. I want to turn system 2 into a full blown node/BBS eventually, but for now it only has LinPac installed. For system 1 I use SSID-10 in the axports config file. For system 2 I use SSID-1 in the axports config file. When setting up Direwolf I read somewhere that the call used in the config file shouldn't have the same SSID as the one used elsewhere, e.g. in axports, so in my Direwolf.conf the call sign BX2ABT without an SSID. But LinPac has it's own configuration files and in init.mac you can basically use any call sign and SSID you which. But I find this confusing, because I know system 2 is BX2ABT-1, but I don't know the users on that system, and if I don't setup a user called BX2ABT-1 in my LinPac init.mac file I can never reach that system by using :c BX2ABT-1. Then thinking ahead: what if I want to add a mailbox, BBS, etc. Do these also come with their own configurations and choice of SSID? So my question is: what is a good strategy to choose SSIDs without running into trouble and without confusing anyone? Cheers, Hans BX2ABT |

Re: No TX audio
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHello Ross, Ok, let's start from the top.? Your first email mentioned you're running Direwolf v1.5 from Linux but don't get any output sound.? Is this direwolf running on the bare metal Linux host or within a Linux VM?? I ask this because your last message mentioned "Audio output data underrun" which is very unusual for Direwolf but I've seen errors like this when running in a VM.? If it's running on bare metal, any ideas what else might be using that specific soundcard?? Have you rebooted your host recently to give it a fresh start? As an output audio test, maybe you can configure Direwolf to use a different soundcard and see if the modem tones can be heard on a set of speakers/headphones?? Consider using the Direwolf in calibration mode by specifying the "-x a" parameter at the command (see all the options available to you below).

Re: No TX audio
Unfortunately, nothing has worked yet. I still don't believe it's RFI because the machine I'm using had Windows installed previously, and Direwolf worked fine on it. I haven't moved the rig, antenna, or coax at all since. Maybe the interface I've got doesn't play nicely with Linux? It's a simple FTDI interface though, so it should work.
I should note that, when trying to transmit, Direwolf displays "Audio output data underrun." |

Re: No TX audio
It the TX light is on BUT you are not successfully transmitting then: - check that there is indeed audio coming out of the sound card during transmit: ?there probably is If there is audio coming out but no decodable packets are occurring, then the packets are plausibly distorted. I have found the Raspberry PI environment very sensitive to RFI with the USB subsystem?being particularly sensitive.? GPS pucks are also problematic.

? Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Again, I want card 1.? So, in my direwolf.conf file, I have ADEVICE plughw:1,0. Direwolf successfully loads: Dire Wolf version 1.5
Includes optional support for:? hamlib cm108-ptt
?
Reading config file direwolf.conf
Audio device for both receive and transmit: plughw:1,0? (channel 0)
Channel 0: 1200 baud, AFSK 1200 & 2200 Hz, E+, 44100 sample rate.
Ready to accept AGW client application 0 on port 8000 ...
Ready to accept KISS TCP client application 0 on port 8001 ...
However, I am only receiving packets. When I try to transmit, there is no audio. The rig does key up, however. I've verified that my audio device isn't muted. It transmits when run in a Windows VM, but the USB latency is too bad and I can't make a connection. I'm not sure what to check. Any ideas? |
