AllStar Node Number Extensions
    
A Node Number Extension is a method to expand any issued node number to as many as ten node numbers.  The reasons for this are to allow users to assign themselves sequential node numbers while preserving and expanding valuable node number space. The concept is very simple; allow users to optionally expand the length of any of their node numbers by one digit.

= NNX on your AllStar Node =
 +
The existing node number must be changed by adding a zero. There are 3 files which require minor edits. These examples show xxxxx for your node number. In all examples you are simply adding a 0 to your existing node number. Don't forget to make a backup copy of these files before any edits.
 +
 +
== rpt.conf ==
 +
The node number must be changed on two lines in rpt.conf. First change the node number stanza title.
 +
<pre>
 +
[xxxxx0]                              ; node stanza title. Replace xxxxx with your original node number.
 +
rxchannel=DAHDI/pseudo              ; Example Rx audio/signalling channel. There is no need to change what you have.
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
and then change the nodes stanza
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
[nodes]
 +
xxxxx0 = radio@127.0.0.1:pppp/xxxxx0,NONE    ; replace xxxxx with your original node number. If :pppp (the port number) exists do not change
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
== extensions.conf ==
 +
The change in extensions.conf can vary depending on the vintage/distro of your node. But typically you modify this one line:
 +
<pre>
 +
[globals]
 +
HOMENPA=714
 +
NODE=xxxxx0        ; Modify this line. Replace xxxxx with your original node number.
 +
 +
[default]
 +
exten => i,1,Hangup
 +
 +
[radio-secure]
 +
exten => _XXXX!,n,rpt,${EXTEN}  ; the upper case X is required syntax, do not change.
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
If the radio-secure stanza looks more like this, then change it.
 +
<pre>
 +
[radio-secure]
 +
exten => xxxxx0,1,rpt,xxxxx0
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
== iax.conf ==
 +
In this example nnnnn is used to indicate your original node number. Just add a zero as above.
 +
 +
For ASL registration:
 +
<pre>
 +
register=nnnnn0:password@register.allstarlink.org
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
HamVoIP registration will look like this:
 +
<pre>
 +
register=nnnnn0#pppp:password@register.hamvoip.org  ; where #pppp is the port, the # is required syntax, do not change
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
That's it! Now restart your node for the changes to take effect. Make sure your new node number is registered and can connect.
 +
 +
= Add Subsequent NNX Node(s) =
 +
If you want to add another node to the same server server, the process is exactly the same as [[Two_Nodes_on_One_Server]].
 +
 +
If you want to add an NNX node to a new server, the process is no different than building a new server, or exactly the same as [[Media:ASL two servers one netwrok.pdf|PDF explaining how to have two servers behind a NAT router.]]
