NAME

6       axdigi - axdigi file.

DESCRIPTION

9       axdigi This executable should be loaded in your startup script with the
10       command: /usr/local/sbin/axdigi (or path to where  you  installed  it).
11       This  file  enables  cross-port  digipeating  within  your linux's ax25
12       stack.
13
14       Special Conditions: axdigi In order to digipeat, you or the user *must*
15       know  your  SSID  associated  with the ifconfig <interface> that is the
16       direct link to the outbound path they wish to digi to. axdigi will han‐
17       dle  the  appropriate  digipeat  accordingly. If you have multiple ax25
18       interfaces, you should somehow list them for the users in  the  axports
19       description  so  they  will  see them when doing an "Interface" command
20       while on URONode. If the user  wishes  to  log  off  URONode  and  digi
21       through,  then  they  must use the interface's SSID associated with the
22       OUTBOUND path to their destination.
23
24       commands are:
25
26       C <destination> via <your interface-SSID>
27                     If the user heard station A1BCD-7 on your ax0  interface,
28                     and  that interface's SSID is: W1XYZ-9 (NOT the FlexID of
29                     URONode!) then  the  user  would  enter:  c  a1bcd-7  via
30                     w1xyz-9  even if their inbound interface might be ax1 and
31                     it's ifconfig shows your SSID as w1xyz-10!

33       Detailed information
34                     If you have 3 ax25  interfaces  ifconfigured  as:  ax0  -
35                     w1xyz-9 ax1 - w1xyz-10 ax2 - w1xyz-11
36
37                     User k2lmn would enter your node via ax2 and they wish to
38                     digi to a1bcd-7 which is heard on ax0 they  would  simply
39                     enter:  c  a1bcd-7 via w1xyz-9 to connect. Axdigi handles
40                     the crossport functions. If they  tried:  c  a1bcd-7  via
41                     w1xyz-11  the connect would fail because it would attempt
42                     to digi OUT on your ax2 interface. This may get tricky so
43                     expect  a  need  to  educate your users on this. Unfortu‐
44                     nately, linux lacks native cross-port digipeating at this
45                     time so this is a work-around.
