; A keepalive may be needed if you have not properly configured your
; router to direct incoming UDP traffic to the specific machine on you
; LAN which is running BPQ32. You should properly configure your router
; so that the keepalive is unneeded, as this ploy is not completely
; reliable!

; In the exceptional case where your ISP is dropping your incoming traffic
; testing has found that the keepalive might help ‘keep the door open’.
; In the following example a keepalive packet is sent every 30 seconds:
; MAP AA1AA-1 example.net KEEPALIVE 30 UDP 10093 B

; An experimental TCP communication mode was added with the 2009/Aug/28 Beta
; release. The purpose is to circumvent router issues which are almost certain
; when ‘your side’, which we will call the client side, cannot control access
; to direct incoming UDP packets to your machine. Instead you will originate
; a connection via TCP. TCP is a connected protocol, all routers should
; automatically set up the return path to your machine.

; An example would be your BPQ32 node, with a node call of MYCALL-5, on a
; laptop at a public access WiFI site. To connect to AA1AA-1 via this method
; you will need this entry in your MAP list (without the ; of course):
; MAP AA1AA-1 example.net TCP-Master 10093 B

; AA1AA-1 is the node call of the remote side, e.g. server side. The server
; side must have the ability to program its router to direct incoming TCP
; traffic with the specified port number to the machine running BPQ32 Node
; AA1AA-1, just as it does for UDP.

; BPQ32 Node AA1AA-1 at URL=example.net would add the folllowing entry to its
; MAP list:
; MAP MYCALL-5 0.0.0.0 TCP-Slave 10093 B

; As a result AA1AA-1 will listen for TCP packets on port 10093 from MYCALL-5.
; When heard, a TCP connection will result over which AX.25 traffic will flow.
; The server side obtains the client side ip address when the connection
; request is received.

; As currently implemented the client side will have to make advance
; arrangements with the server side so that the correct MAP entries will be in
; effect, as well as to specify a unique TCP port number for each prearranged
; client.

Applications:

You can define additional Node commands that are available to your users. These may connect to
applications running on you computer, or be aliases or ‘shortcuts’ to other node commands.
For example you can define the command “BBS”. This can either be set up to connect to a BBS running
on your computer, or to be an alias for a command that connects to a BBS on another system.

You can set up a callsign that if connected to will select the command, and if required cause the
call to be added to your NODES list.

The format is:

APPLICATION n,CMD,New Command,Call,Alias, Quality

n Application Number. You can define up to 32.
CMD The command the user types
New Command (optional) The Node command to be run
Call (optional) The call which directly invokes CMD
Alias and Quality (optional) If specified, causes an entry for Call and Alias to be added to your
NODES table with the specified Quality.

Associated with each Application number is an application mask. Most BPQ32 applications can be configured to
use any Application. An exception is AR-Cluster using the OCX interface, which must be Appl 1. Normally an Application Mask is configured in the application, rather than an Application Number. The following table gives
the Application Mask values:

Appl: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, etc
Decimal Mask: 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128, etc
Hexadecimal Mask: 0x1,0x2,0x4,0x8,0x10,0x20,0x40,0x80, etc

APPLICATION 1,BBS,,PI8BDG,BDGBBS,255
APPLICATION 2,CHAT,,PI1BDG-4,BDGCHT,255
APPLICATION 3,RMS,C 2 CMS,PI8BDG-10,BDGRMS,255
APPLICATION 4,DX,C 2 HOST 0,PI8BDG-6,BDGDXC,255

/*

In this example a single local application, AR-Cluster, is supported.
If a connected user enters ‘DX’ the node will involk the application
associated with the first positional parameter.

If we elect to use the OCX interface to AR-Cluster, it must be the first
positional parameter, as AR-Cluster does not give the user the option to
set it’s application mask, rather it is hard coded as 0x1 internally in
AR-Cluster.

If instead we choose to use the AGWtoBPQ interface for AR-Cluster, the
applications may be in any of the 8 possible positions. However we have
chosen position 1, thus the mask in AGWtoBPQ must be configured as 0x1 to
correspond to the first positional parameter.
