Once you receive your block, you'll want to Register your gateway! If you click the above link we can get started.
- First, click on "Add a gateway". This will take you to the configuration menu. First field asks for a title, you
can enter in your Callsign, QTH, etc. - Encap type can only be IPIP, just insure that it is.
- Gateway Hostname - this gets a bit tricky. Unless you know your IP is static (aka: never changes because most likely
you're paying for the lease of it from your ISP) this field is moot for you, however if your IP changes (even if its
just once a year) you're dynamic and you should sign up for a dynamic host resolver service such as No-IP.
They offer a tool you load after registering that broadcasts to them your dynamic IP and keeps it associated with the hostname you choose such as "ab1cd.no-ip.org". The portal will automatically resolve your Hostname prior to compiling the RIP
broadcasts so if your IP does indeed change, the portal will change it for you! No human intervention required. - Gateway IP - If you ARE a static IP based gateway, ignore the above line and enter your IP. The portal won't change this.
- Update Password - unneeded.
- Gateway Password - unneeded.
- Notes - Here you can be more specific as to what your gateway will run for services, it's location. etc.
When complete, click on "add". The screen will refresh and a NEW add to the bottom of the screen will appear. You'll see a "network" button. Click on that
and you'll see a listing of subnets in numerical order. Look for your subnet, highlight it, and click on "add" below it. You're not routing internally for your subnet! To get external internet routing working, you'll need to insure you email your coordinator DNS hostnames for your gateway as a filter has been put in place to halt internet traffic through UCSD to points which do not contain valid DNS entries.
Once this is all completed, you should visit the various links at N1URO's Website as to get your gateway
live and routing on the amprnet. If you intend on using a Raspberry Pi, you may want to strongly consider N1URO's Pi Image or if you've done a basic Debian or now Ubuntu basic install you can use the Installer script written by N1URO. Just fill in the variables as they're written in the various files.
