Here’s how to ensure your Allstar node maintains a permanent connection to another node.
If you want to have your Allstar node automatically connect (and stay connected) to a remote node, you’ll need to add a couple of things to your rpt.conf.
First, create macros in your [functionsXXXXXX] section (where XXXXXX is your node number) for permanent node connections. I used 951, 952, and 953:
|
1 2 3 4 |
; Permanent link 951=ilink,11 ; Permanent link disconnect 952=ilink,12 ; Permanent link receive 953=ilink,13 ; Permanent link transceive |
Then, in your node configuration (in the [XXXXXX] section, where XXXXXX is your node number), simply add:
|
1 |
startup_macro=*953NNNNN |
Where NNNNNN is the node with which you want to establish a permanent connection.
Then reload app_rpt or restart asterisk.
