Use Local LAN addresses for XLX connections
Posted: Sun Jan 02, 2022 2:01 am
Dear all,
I'm trying to configure pi-star to connect XLX reflector on both DMR gateway and D-STAR using local LAN address of our network (where the XLX really is, on the same net of the repeater) instead of the public IP declared in the hosts files downloaded from the Internet sources.
I've tried changing hosts files, changing them in the /root dir and for DMR gateway used a separated file specified in its configuration. All of this failed and the system is always trying to reach the XLX on the public name/IP.
Is there any reliable way to do this and have full control of what IP is used for a specific XLX connection?
Pi-star is updated to the latest versions as of today.
Many thanks for your help! Mauro IW3ROW
