<div dir="ltr">Rob,<div><br></div><div>When you and I were talking about this, the point I was trying to make is, why stop at one? Why do you only want HamWAN on the site router? It's no problem to give you as many addresses as you need to cover all the devices at the site. For instance, we have EOCs with a full public /24 dedicated to end-user devices. There's no need to NAT; we have plenty of addresses available. The benefit of this, in the long run, is that people can add devices in the EOC, hospital, etc., and not have to request port forwarding for apps that require it. We set up the /24 once and then don't have to make changes every time someone wants to add an Echolink node. It just works.</div><div><br></div><div>Tom</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Mar 5, 2017 at 5:10 PM, Rob Salsgiver <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:rob@nr3o.com" target="_blank">rob@nr3o.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div>Cory,<div>This is pretty much the question I had brought up after working with Tom I think when bringing up the Monroe hospital. All I was looking for was to expose the site's router (RB2011 in this case) to grab a public IP similar to a DSL or cable connection. Configuring a public subnet just to have an external IP on an internal router seems to add more administration than would be needed for 90% or more of the sites. Having the firewall configurations being done/updated on a normal basis out at the antenna/metal means you have to GO to the antenns to reaet the router if there are and config snags (been there/done that). Having the user-managed device be inside the building is a LOT more convenient when something goes TU and leaves the antenna router in a more static/stable condition. Please keep me in the loop for what becomes the preferred config for this as I expect to have most of my sites in this situation.</div><div><div class="h5"><br><br>-------- Original message --------<br>From: "Cory (NQ1E)" <<a href="mailto:cory@nq1e.hm" target="_blank">cory@nq1e.hm</a>> <br>Date: 3/5/17 3:56 PM (GMT-08:00) <br>To: Puget Sound Data Ring <<a href="mailto:psdr@hamwan.org" target="_blank">psdr@hamwan.org</a>> <br>Cc: <a href="mailto:netops@hamwan.org" target="_blank">netops@hamwan.org</a> <br>Subject: Re: [HamWAN PSDR] Metal 5SHPN Network Help <br><br><div dir="ltr">Hi Kyle,<div><br></div><div>It is possible to bridge your interfaces togtether so your internal router could request a DHCP lease from the sector.
