AllStarLink v3 continues to grow and improve we are pleased to announce updates and new software packages. The following updated packages are now available in beta and will be promoted to main in approximately one week:
asl3-update-nodelist
- No longer start on boot automatically by @jxmx in #12
- Do not pull extnodes if node_lookup_method=dns by @jxmx in #13
Note: The change in start-on-boot is only for new installations. Existing installations will not be impacted.
These changes are being made in advance of the default node_lookup_method being changed exclusively to DNS in the Asterisk/app_rpt packages.
Users are encouraged to change node_lookup_method in /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf to:
node_lookup_method = dns
and to stop the asl3-update-nodelist process with systemctl stop asl3-update-nodelist.timer && systemctl disable asl3-update-nodelist.timer. This will reduce unneeded bandwidth utilization on nodes and on the ASL servers.
Please update your systems using the Cockpit web console or command line at your convenience.
Sincerely,
AllStarLink
