I'm running an xlxd reflector without the AMBE transcoder. I am using primarily two modules. One is for D-STAR on my multimode gateway (XLX432 D) and another is a YSF reflector. Other than the YSF channel, the rest are available for D-STAR use. -- 73 de Tony VK3JED/VK3IRL http://vkradio.com

Re: ASL <-> D-Star <-> xlxd
As I found, without 127.0.0.1 xlxd is not listening on any UDP
ports. I did not think xlxd HAD to be used with a vocoder if all it
was to do is be a D-Star reflector.

Not high on my list of things to care about, I was just playing and or bringing up a test D-Star or DMR or YSF reflector. Steve

If I am not mistaken the 127.0.0.1 is supposed to be ambed.

Re: ASL <-> D-Star <-> xlxd
I believe it is looking for AMBE transcoding. I am no expert though. Just trying to help :)

Re: ASL <-> D-Star <-> xlxd
So,
I was playing around this morning. I'll preface this as I can't even spell xlxd. I find xlxd listens on a number of UDP ports, some of which conflict with ircDDBGateway. This is a systemctl status after starting xlxd on a DVSwitch Server Dec 19 12:07:27 new xlxd[1337]: Read 162240 DMR ids from xlxapi.rlx.lu database Dec 19 12:07:28 new xlxd[1337]: Read 6004 YSF nodes from xlxapi.rlx.lu database

It seems the default startup for xlxd is: xlxd XLX999 192.168.178.212 127.0.0.1 Question, what is xlxd listening to 127.0.0.1 for? If I start xlxd without the 127.0.0.1 address, the daemon starts with no error. AH! if I start xlxd without 127.0.0.1 it starts, but is not listening to any UDP ports... Comments?

Re: Adding P25 to existing YSF and DMR bridge
Complete bridge end to end. From what you told me, if only one
bridge is running it works fine (either one) I want you to capture
the UDP data for tach bridge running on its own.

Re: Adding P25 to existing YSF and DMR bridge

Ken
For clarification. When you say bridge are you referring to the MB instances only, or the complete bridge end to end..... i.e MB only for my YSF to DMR, then stop that MB, and for the P25 to DMR start its MB and both AB's ? Thanks

That is not what I suggested yo do. This is. With only one of your bridges running, run /opt/MMDVM_Bridge/dvswitch.sh getUDPPortsForProcess ALL The stop that bridge and start the other bridge /opt/MMDVM_Bridge/dvswitch.sh getUDPPortsForProcess ALL compare the 2 outputs.

Re: Adding P25 to existing YSF and DMR bridge

Steve,
I ran dvswitch.sh getUDPPortsForProcess ALL with all instances of MB and AB stopped. With all instances stopped the only ports showing in use where those associated with P25Gateway 6074, 42010, 42020. The other ports not displayed used are 41000 - P25 reflector, and 42002 - YSF reflector. I did not find any conflicts. I attached the output for review.

Re: Current Best-Practices for Linking with Brandmeister
J M
I'm not sure I understand your comment about the channels then. I should only need two channels to transcode between D-STAR and DMR within xlxd via ambed. Isn't the point of MMDVMBrdige/DVSwitch to translate between DMR and YSF by changing the data stream but not needing to be transcoded becuase YSF and DMR is the same AMBE version?

Re: Current Best-Practices for Linking with Brandmeister
Its not a hardware problem. Only 2 channels are being used. With the third not being used. That's where the problem lies. You need a pair.

You mean there's a hardware problem with the AMBE dongle? It's DVStick33 with three transcoder channels so it shouldn't be resource exhaustion.
