Static IP address

[PE5PVB]

Hi,

I want to enter a static IP address with subnet /22. For some reason the Winterhill interface fails to start after this. Any ideas?

Code: Select all

============================================================================================
Cannot add membership for port 9921 
Error setting up UDP sockets for receiver 1
============================================================================================
WinterHill stopped: (10) 
============================================================================================

Can you give some more details please.

What is the IP address that you are using?
Can you show the command line that you are putting it in.

In /etc/dhcpcd.conf

interface eth0
static ip_address=44.137.26.87/22
static ip6_address=fd51:42f8:caae:d92e::ff/64
static routers=437.137.27.254
static domain_name_servers=44.137.0.1 8.8.8.8 fd51:42f8:caae:d92e::1

I'm using Multihub.

Do you still have 230.0.0.230 in whlaunch-multihub-3v20.sh?

It's failing when it tries to join the multicast group for port 9921. Are multicast groups still possible with your configuration?

>>static routers=437.137.27.254

Is that address correct? This is getting outside my network knowledge.

Brian,

That is the address of the gateway. Currently it is not in that network, but directly connected to my PC for test purpose. It will see the gateway once it is installed on the repeater site.

437.137.27.254 isn't a valid address though. Shouldn't that be 44.137.27.254?

Ah typo. I’ll try it tonight
