OH I get it. When you transmit the TG into the system the P25hosts file tells the gateway were to send it on the network and that “receiving” gateway is what then handles the data on that end….DOH! Sorry…sometimes I need to be hit in the head with a rock. Thanks for being patient with me….

it works exactly the same way.
When P25Gateway receives traffic from MMDVMHost it sends the traffic to the IP (or FQDN) and port defined in the gateway host file.

Steve,

 

Ah ok that makes sense. I see what you are saying there. Then maybe I com confused on how the P25 Reflector system Works. One of the other groups I am with has t a talkgroup setup on P25 and has the reflector setup. How are things being directed to that reflector?

Jeff,
OK. Here is what I think you are looking for. The Reflector does not have anything to do with the TG number. It simply reflects any data sent to it by P25Gateway on the UDP port number.
This is from P25Hosts.txt used by the gateway:

# North America, 1020x
10200 dvswitch.org  41000
10201 dvswitch.org  41010

When P25Gateway receives traffic from MMDVMHost (for a HS or MMDVM Reepater) or from MMDVM_Bridge (Quantar or bridge) it sends the traffic to the IP (or FQDN) and port defined in the file.
If you sent TG 12345 to dvswitch.org on port number 41000 it would reflect that TG to every other Gateway connected.

Hope this helps.

Hi Steve,

 

I’m trying to install from scratch. I cloned the github code and kind of followed the same steps as YSF Reflector and compiled the code and it seems to run. But I am still trying to figure out how to set the talkgroup (I want to use a unique one) and connect it to MMDVM Brdige eventually but I want to get the reflector working first and then go there. I’ve tried also installing P25 Relfector dashboard and it doesn’t show what I expect even after modifying the config.php file so that makes me think that the reflecotor is not working right.

Jeff,
Are you looking for information on configuring a P25Reflector or are you trying to install from scratch?
You can compile the code from github or install by apt-get. What OS are you planning to install on?

Hi All,

   I might just be brain dead and I may not be posting this to the right group and can’t find what I am looking for, but does anyone know of a good walkthrough for setting up a P25 reflector?

 

   Thanks,

     Jeff
