<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am not sure that I completely understand what you
are trying to do. However, here is one answer.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You need to have the person that maintains your
digi/node configure it such that when a user connects to an alias, they are
automatically routed to your dxspider node. In addition, they/you need to
establish a node name and callsign for your DXSpider node that propagates
throughout your packet network.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For example, in Southwest New Hampshire we have a
node stack. Through any number of paths, a user can use the packet network
to reach SWNH:WA1ZYX-??, or they can reach SWNHU:WA1ZYX-?? It has been
some time, so I do not remember the exact SSIDs. Regardless, the owner of
the node stack has up an alias of DX. When a user reaches SWNH, all he has
to do is enter DX, and he is automatically routed on an RF link to K1XX, my AK1A
PacketCluster node. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The owner of the node stack has also set up the
node name/callsign of DXGATE:K1XX-6 which propagates into the packet
system. Users in upper Vermont, or other places, simply need to find an
access point to the packet network which shows DXGATE:K1XX-6. Then, all
they need to do is C DXGATE and they end up connected to K1XX.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you do some other snooping around on the
packetnetwork, you may see the node YCCCDX. Simply connect there and you
will also eventually end up connected to my AK1A PacketCluster
node.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There's my answer, Hope it matches your
question. One thing to note. All of this routing is done by the
sysop of your digi/node stack. You do not have to do anything except make
sure the RF is in place at your end. For the purposes of this answer,
DXSpider/AGW can be used.</FONT></DIV>
