- convers <subcommands>
-
- These commands configure the network conference server. See the
- section 'SETTING UP THE CONFERENCE BRIDGE' in the JNOS documentaionfor
- details on the inner workings of the conference system.
-
-
- convers drop <name>
-
- Drop the remote convers link to <name>. See also 'convers link'.
-
- convers drop 44.26.1.19
-
-
- convers filter
- Set how the convers node will respond to connect requests.
-
- convers filter mode [accept | refuse]
-
- Sets or displays the filter mode. 'filter mode accept' allows
- links from only the hosts in the filter list. 'filter mode
- reject' allows links from all hosts except those in the list.
-
- convers filter [ipaddress | hostname]
-
- Builds the filter list used in conjunction with the 'convers
- filter mode' command.
-
- convers host <name>
-
- Displays or set the convers hostname as will be used when
- announcing the system to conference users or remote links.
- Maximum length is 10 chars, but if you want to stay compatible
- with NOS.EXE based convers servers use a maximum of 8 character
- for the convers host name (unless the system runs jnos-v1.04 or
- later).
-
- If the 'hostname' gets set and the 'convers host' isn't set yet,
- it will be set to the first 10 chars of the 'hostname'. After
- this, if any sub domains (i.e. periods) exist in the hostname,
- the convers hostname will be terminated at the right-most period.
- e.g. If 'converse host' is not set, and 'hostname
- jnos.wg7j.ampr.org' is given, then after this the converse
- hostname will be 'jnos.wg7j'.
-
- convers host Corvallis
-
-
- convers interface [<iface>] [on|OFF]
-
- Displays or sets the active convers interfaces. This command
- needs to be given for each interface that which will allow
- connections to the conference call (see 'convers mycall'); e.g.,
- this command can be used to allow conference call access only on
- the user ports but not on the backbone/linking ports. This can
- also be useful to avoid confusion when different nodes have the
- same conference call. (Locally, we use the call 'QSO' for the
- conference server for different nodes, and ran into problems when
- a user tried to connect to it from a backbone node. All of a
- sudden two nodes were answering the connect !) Default is off.
-
- convers interface port1
-
-
- convers link <addr> [name]
-
- Add a convers link to another (remote) conference server.
-
- <addr> is the ip address or hostname of the remote server to link to.
- [name] is the optional name that will show up in the links
- listing shown with the '/links' command if the link has not yet
- been established. [name] can be a maximum of 10 characters.
-
- After the link has been established, the name will be set to the
- name the remote system introduced itself with. The link command
- will automatically add an entry for this host into the 'refuse-
- list' (See 'convers refuse' command.) This is to avoid dual
- links, and convers loops.
- convers link 44.26.1.19 Testing

-
- convers [u|h]maxq [<bytes>] {JNOS}
-
- Display or set the upper limit for the number of bytes that can
- be queued up waiting for transmission on a connection to another
- server. If there is more data than this limit, the connection to
- the other server will be closed.
-
- You are able to set individual limits for users and hosts
- with 'convers hmaxq' and 'convers umaxq'. If set to 0, there is
- no limit, otherwise connections will be reset if there is more
- than the []maxq value data outstanding on the connection. The
- connections will be RESET instead of gracefully closed.
-
-
- convers maxwait [<seconds>]
-
- Display or set the upper limit for the time the system will wait
- to reestablish a disconnected convers link that originated at
- this system. Time is given in seconds.
- convers maxwait 600
-
-
- convers motd ["<yourmessage>"]
-
- Set or show the message of the day for the convers server. This
- message is displayed when users connect to the server.
-
-
- convers <mycall>
-
- Display or set the 'conference call'. 'mycall' is a separate
- ax.25 callsign. If set, users can connect to it to get
- immediately connected to the conference bridge. However, each
- port or interface that this call should be allowed on should be
- enabled with the 'convers interface' command. Conference call
- connections bypass the regular node interface. This is
- independent from the settings of 'mbox convers' or whether the
- network conference server has been started. See also 'convers
- t4'.
- convers mycall QSO
-
-
- convers t4 [<seconds>]
-
- (B) Display or the set the conference call connection T4 timer.
- t4 is the 'redundancy timer' for ax.25 connections to the
- conference server. This allows you to set a different inactivity
- time-out for ax25 node and conference connections. Default is
- 7200, i.e. 2 hours.
- convers t4 900
