Personnally I don't know if the example you gave is correct and would work. But you may have perfomed some tests already ? I would say that, as far as AX25 routing is concerned, there are a number of possibilities, using higher level routing facilities, such as node, flexnet or FPAC (based on ROSE network protocol). I am more familiar with ROSE/FPAC that uses a very efficient routing algorithm and white pages at the cost of only three more bytes per AX25 frames. You could find some documentation about FPAC here http://ftp.f6fbb.org/fpac/doc/FPAC-HOWTO.html#toc1 http://rose.fpac.free.fr/MINI-HOWTO/ 73 de Bernard, f6bvp http://f6bvp.org John Ronan wrote : > Could someone give an example of how ax25 routes are supposed to work? > I've been trying to figure this out. > > My understanding (which could be wrong) was that If I did > > axparms -route add myport calla digia > > that if I did > axcall calla > > that the outgoing connect would be directed through digia > > Is my understanding incorrect? > > Regards > de John > EI7IG > > -- > John Ronan , +353-51-302938 > Telecommunications Software & Systems Group, http://www.tssg.org > > >
