When I connect to the switch on the radio LAN I'm N5SN-9


USER
N4PLZ-8 (Commands = ?) : user
Users - AX.25 L2 Sessions :
Port   Callsign     Callsign  State
0      N0IA-9    -> N4PLZ-9   Connected
0      N5SN-9    -> N4PLZ-8   Connected

QUESTION: Should the DeLand node (N0IA-9) show up on Port 0 which is the LAN 
port of the Orlando switch (N4PLZ) or should it show up on one of the 
backbone ports (1) or (2)?


N4PLZ-8 (Commands = ?) : C INFO 386335
Trying INFO @ 3100,386335... Type <RETURN> to abort
*** Connected to INFO @ 3100,386335 (Escape: ~. )

            Welcome to the DeLand FPAC packet switch.
This FPAC Switch provided as a service by the West Volusia Amateur Radio 
Society,
the Indian Mound Amateur Radio Society, N0IA, and N3PPC.

If you are connected to the FPAC node enter i9 for the main menu.

If you connected to INFO please disconnect and connect to node v 
N0IA-9,386335
or, if you are local, c N0IA-8.  For a list of available options enter i9

If you connected to heard or users hit enter to get the appropriate display.

73,

Press ENTER for re-display, or, enter bye to Disconnect

The  LinkT terminal programs shows  Channels 0, 1, 2, and 9

Connect requests to 0 work to the LAN TNC
Connect requests to 1 and 2 both work to the TNC on the upper pci port.

Same with Calibrate command in terminal mode

This has not changed.

Once we get four TNC ports actually working and know the routing works we'll 
move the LINUX computer to the Orlando cabinet and it will have four radios 
on it. It will still be on the internet so you gurus can continue having 
your way with it.
