In the initial packet, the IP address is set to a 10.X.X.X/28
address. You won't see that in the database, because it is only sent
until the Zone RP is authorized.
Once authorized, the IP address used is the one that the Trust
Server picks up from source IP of the poll.
Also, once registered, each module registers with a 10.X.X.X/28
address so that DD traffic can reach it.

David,
Its great that you are willing to freely share your knowledge of how
G2 works - I can't wait until your beta is over and you release code
for us to try and source to study. (My Friendcoms arrived today for my
desktop test platform.) I'm still wondering if you have also found a
way to have your gateway code talk to the RP2C or is it only for home
brew GMSK modem/node adapter controlled repeaters?
Architecturally, I find the whole 10.x.x.x dependency a little off-
putting. Even for DD, the routing should be by callsign (look at the
DD packet format, it has nothing to do with TCP/IP, its about
encapsulating Ethernet packets inside of D-STAR packets). Maybe next
generation trust/gateway architecture can eliminate this dependency?
I think the gateway architecture should be Internet encapsulates D-
STAR packets treating both DD and DV the same. All the trust would
need is to map which callsigns need routed to which gateway and let
the gateway handle it from there.
