why do i need to keep prodding for more information, allstalink should clearly and consistency giving all information when telling someone that they have a problem.
if you know it is a private node, tell the offender what privet node is causing the issue and how to fix it, why is this asking for too much.
i have a total of 3 private nodes here is from the iax.conf of each node
;register =\> [1128:@register.allstarlink.org](mailto:1128:@register.allstarlink.org)
;register =\> [xxxxx:yyyyyy@register.allstarlink.org](mailto:xxxxx:yyyyyy@register.allstarlink.org)

;register =\> [xxxxx:yyyyyy@register.allstarlink.org](mailto:xxxxx:yyyyyy@register.allstarlink.org)
as you can see the line to not register is commented out.
if there is a private node left on by error more information will help to find it.
the WAN spans 2 States.
furthermore i find it hard to believe that even if my 3 nodes are where registering inappropriately that it could cause so much trouble that i need to be banned.
if errant data from 3 nodes can bring down the system i am surprised it works at all.
furthermore it seems to that allstarlink’s unwillingness to provide information and assistance tells mat they do not care to help, point fingers as this-is all i seem to get from allstarlink.
with by=ryans departure i thought allstarlink would improve i guess i was wrong.
instead of asking me to prove a negative (that i am not doing something) tell me what i need to know to resolve this issue.
as i keep asking please provide more information

What about all the number 1999 nodes that exist on every HamVoIP node by default? Are those all not registering or stat posting?

On HamVoIP, by default, the registration and stat posts for node 1998 and 1999 are commented out and only present as an example of how to configure for public nodes.

Why is the allstarlink staff so opposed to actually giving what they are actually seeing as the issue???
first the answer was that my ip address ended in .254 now the guess is node 1999
what about the actual data instead of guessing???
if someone would give me exact ally what they are seeing as the issue, such node number mac address something useful instead of general statement this could have resolved long ago.
in the ham VoIP by default the 1999 is commented out.
i provided the iax.conf registration lines showing both the private node number i assigned and the 1999 being commented out.
so it seems now i see hwy i am being singled out here, and not being helped it is because i am using the hamviop version.
some of the reasons i use the hamvoip version are when i was having issues with DIAL, the allstaling staff was not helpful (much like today) and the Hamvoip team was helpfull and without the bad attitude i and lack of information was getting from the allstarlink team.
now fast forward to today, last week i wanted to try a more powerful server to see if would resolve what i was doing. This was not an easy task, the asterisk service did not start and as a module was missing, had to research and find a solution, this took some time.
now if i need to build a hamvoip server if the radio is ready with the cable including burning the sim, i can have it working in 20 to 25 minuets. Huge difference.
now i will likely be told about the open source issues, frankly i do not care about those issues, the hamvoip team is easy to work with, and the software works, thus i do not care about the open source issues.
all i care about does it work and it does can i get answers what i kneed knowledge, yes i can. Unlike the allstarlink team.
tell me the exact node numbers mac address (something i can work with) you are having issues with and i will correct it

All 3 private nodes are now public nodes
this should resolve the issues as there are no private nodes
please remove the .254 from blacklist
if you see anything else please tell me exactly what you are seeing

I’m sure it’s not the register statement in iax.conf. It would be the statspost line in rpt.conf in the private nodes stanza that is the issue. I’d say make sure you are not attempting to report stats for private nodes to the asl servers. If only valid node numbers were reporting stats from an IP address then I’m sure ASL would not have any problem making an exception. But I’m pretty sure they have every right to block an IP that is sending junk attempts.
Thank you

@Nate_Hardman, What leads you to believe there are private nodes involved? @chris43 says these are all public nodes behind a NAT router? Granted that’s a lot of traffic coming from one IP but how is it different than coming from all separate IPs?

thank you for giving me direction on where to look, as i do not know how the servers communicated with the allstar servers i did not know to look there. i never ran into this before.
i believe i have logged into every node and corrected this where i found it wrong.
i am unsure how this would have changed as i never had more than one node on each Pi server.
hopefully this resolves this issue
it is very helpful when the knowledge is shared

It appears you have corrected the configurations that were causing the excess traffic to the ASL stats server as your IP is no longer triggering the “Denial of Service attack filters” Which I’m sure you will agree maintaining a defense against such types attacks are a benefit to the AllStarLink community. Please keep us informed if you have plans to add additional nodes behind that same IP address we may in the future need to add exceptions. Also please ensure any nodes you help someone with does not have the status reporting turned on for private nodes. The asl-menu scripts released along with ASL\_V1.01 used for initial node configuration have the feature to turn off status reporting for node numbers below 2000.

thanks
i just needed to know what to look for, as i am on the sending end and not the receiving end i can not see what is happening.
your clue was all i needed to figure it out.
giving a little information can go a long way

David,
Per your email below, it’s nice to see you help fix this problem with your HamVoIP node software install configuration.
Glad that you were able to realize that your node software setup configuration was sending private and invalid node information to the ASL servers, which in turn, was causing issues for some folks that use your software.
It’s proof that we can work together and solve problems for the users instead of pointing fingers. 🙂
All of the ASL folks are purely motivated in helping others using Allstarlink to solve their problems. For the record there are no secrets being kept by the ASL team!
Since we all volunteer in our spare time in between work, family, and other commitments, sometimes it takes a few days to get back to folks that have problems and ask questions on this forum.
We all need to remember this is a hobby and everyone is here to have fun, no one is getting paid, and ASL does not charge for support as it is given freely.
We (ASL) all do the best we can for the hobby and this technology that was freely given to the amateur radio community by the many great individuals that came before all of us!

I know you had a trouble in on this and the issue was not resolved. But that’s your only option at this point. I have no control of the firewall so there nothing more I can do. Sorry.

I update my node for 49311 to 493110 two days ago and it no longer registers on the allstar screen. Any thoughts as to what i can look at

You must change the register= line in iax.conf to you new node number.
Have you read these [NNX docs](https://wiki.allstarlink.org/wiki/NNX)?

Looks like the ALS register is wrong. Remove the :\* and see if it registers.
Not sure about the hamvoip.

Is the node password the same as the AllStarLink server?
