Subject: EN Flex Region connectivity and beyond.
*************************************************
Reference: NetNws Bulletin nn_09_4.txt
With the shutdown of Eastnet Amprnet HUB0 and Hub128 and other servers as
indicated in NetNws Bulletin nn_09_4, the Eastnet Northeastern States and
Florida FlexNet RF regions lost connectivity and many of the RF links in the
Northeastern States region were no longer backed up via Amprnet links.
Amprnet world wide connectivity and bbs forwarding was also lost. It soon
became clear that for many reasons a rebuild of an Eastnet Ampernet network
to support the Eastnet FlexNet RF regions and beyond was not likely to happen.
Currently a new plan is in the works that is very likely to be implemented.
This involves installing regional IGates using the new BPQ32 NetRom software
linked to existing FlexNet-Digi nodes. The BPQ32 nodes will use Internet
Telnet protocol to pass axip or axudp encap to provide connectivity to other
IGates. BPQ32 does support cross port digi mode which will allow FlexNet
links and via links to be used to digi from FlexNet node to FlexNet node via
BPQ32 nodes.
FlexNet <> <p2 BPQ32 P1> <> Internet <> <P1 BPQ32 P2> <> FLexNet
The current Eastnet Regional support IGate support plan for the
EastNet Flexnet network includes:
Region BPQ32 FlexNet Status
WNY FGRLKS:K2CAN-3 / KC2HFQ-1 Existing and fully operational.
NNY NNY:K2DLL-3 / K2DLL-1 Under Construction
ENY ENY:KC2CWT-3 / K2PUT-1 On line testing
NYC NYC:N2NSA-3 / KB2VLX-1 Umder Construction
ECFL ECFL:N4LEM-3 / N4LEM-1 On line testing
"Beyond" in the subject means many NetRom destinations via internet from any
of these IGates on the Eastnet FlexNet Network.
Other services such as Win-FBB, DXSpider, Chat, Winlink RMS will in time
be available to be connected to from some of these BPQ32 nodes.
