Hi all, I have created a rough guide on how to add a client to your Sector, unfortunately the Wiki doesn’t allow me to upload the document as it has a built-in IP Calculator tool which relies on Excel Makro’s.
For those who are interested I have shared the document and it can be downloaded via the Wug network on Adding a Client to your Sector.
Ogon’s wording I think is coming out wrong… They should try and keep to those rules but we cannot enforce those rules on privately owned equipment not running ospf…But yes best standard is to follow the rules
its irrelevant if it is running ospf or not. It will still need to be routed through to the closest ospf device broadcasting an area range even if that range is broadcasted from a different node.
There are no rules for private sites when connecting clients, its up to the area admin to connect them. So basically they can connect 50 clients to a sector with a signal of -84.
Yeah sure @Firestarter. I’ll do so tommorow morning. Just came back from night out with family. Also gives me time to think about how to phrase it correctly that will be easy to understand.
Thanks for your efforts @Firestarter glad to see there are more wuggers that are actively involved for the right reasons
Also, I dont actually know what I am doing just yet, only joined CTwug in October 2016 and I went a little too big too quick. Mikrotik is new to me, had to learn the language and figure stuff out with a lot of help from Big Chief @Ogon.
For those who downloaded this document earlier today, please re-download it. I made a mistake on the Subnet Calculator page, the Sector I.P is not supposed to have a /xx in front of it. Document has been updated on my side. I have also added a link to a Subnet Calculator application which if I remember correctly @Gekido uploaded some time back before the data loss.
