Scriv,
.
If that is possible it would absolutely be wondermous!! I tell you it
has been a nightmare trying to use an IP pool of 30 IPs on the WAN side,
doing NAT on the LAN side and have 100 phones + PCs....etc all getting a
DHCP number from the Cisco router. The IP phones wouldnt let the IP addy
go and it would tie up all the IPs...etc
I will give this info to Steve as he is really the brain in the Cisco
stuff and I can barely even spell Cisco (sp?) :-)
Thanks

We can do an IP-IP tunnel for you guys if you need IPs. Will MCI not
give you guys a /22 block of addresses? Have your Cisco guy call David
Smith at 618-244-6868 if you still want our blocks. We can announce
those routes and tunnel them to you I think.

Scriv,
I think the problem was that MCi didnt have a way to announce those
(yours) IPs from Gulfport. So we are hung with about 30 IPs from
their pool. I wish we could have utilized those IPs as it would have
absolutely been NICE!!
You better send Sharon an email with your physical addy and the
"S~T~R~E~T~C~H" request -)

You won't have a problem with Class Cs in Bay of St. Louis. You must
have forgotten that we gave you guys 4 class Cs to use there from
Mt. Vernon. Net. Joe Lapolita has the specifics. MCI just needs to
announce the routes and it is done. Call David Smith at 618-244-6868
if you or anyone else needs instruction on getting access to these
routes.. This is a done deal. David Smith had these Cs ready in five
minutes when we called from down in Bay of St. Louis.
Later Mac Man!

Harnish,
hehehehehe - -I know what you and Scriv were thinking when you came
down to Ponchatoula - -"Road trip" and vacation!!! :-)
I want all of you out there to know these men worked their arses
off the days they were down there. I felt sorry that they had
driven so far, worked very hard and then put back on the highway to
make that long leg home after having had the dog worked out of
them. I appreciate y'all Rick & Scriv. The two of you not only
delivered a tremendous amount of food for the shelters, but a pile
of PCs and monitors...etc. You guys already had my respect, but
now you have actually earned it!! I appreciate you two & Kent!!
WISPA ordered some T-shirts for our team that was here (N.
Louisiana) and/or in Mississippi
They say "WISPA" "Building Emergency Communications" on the front
and on the right sleeve they say "Hurricane Katrina Relief Team 2005"
Please send [EMAIL PROTECTED] your size and mailing addy and we
will get yours shipped out to you. The sizes available are XL, L &
Medium and I think there are 60 of them all total. First come first
served on sizes and I can think of a few of US that would stretch a
medium sized T-shirt to the point of disgrace :-) and/or even
shameful for public display!
Again I want to thank all of you for your kindness and hard work. I
am at home and will be working on my network this week as I await
some more gear to come in to get a few more backhaul links in for
Mississippi. Any of you ready for another round down there? If you
havent been to Bay St. Louis, Diamondhead, Waveland or Pearlington
- - - - - - you aint seen a thing and I need your help!!!!
I need some help for this weekend or first part of next week. I
need a couple climbers as well as a few installers. I need some
help re-vamping the network in South Mississippi as the original
plan does have its faults as we were trying to work with the ATAs
that we had. I have Steve Milton in Seattle who is the Cisco gate
keeper and he has done an outstanding job. He is just a phone call
away with any changes we need. I think if I can get MCI to give us
a full Class C we would be in good shape and then we could just
assign public IPs to all routers on the network and do NAT at the
client router only. The ATAs have given us fits with NAT and I
think that we now have Aaron Huslage supplying us with the Linksys
- 2 port ATA and firewall routers that will enable us to build a
highly reliable and redundant backhaul and AP scenario.

Mac,
I am still in awe of your energy level for such an old man. ;)
You are the
epitomy of what all of us should strive to be. I'm glad you have
taken the weekend off to spend at home with your wife and
family. The last time we talked, you were having issues in
Gulfport with
interference. It sounds like maybe those are resolved, are they?
How is Joe doing? Is he getting equipment that he needs? I only
wish I could get back down there and help but it just isn't in the
cards for me. I have too many projects that are demanding my
attention
RIGHT NOW! I'm sure you know tooooooo well how that is.
If you need me to stump for gear or other supplies, let me know.
Hey, I can
ship those Tsunamis back down to yall. :P
Enjoy the weekend!

Good morning list,
I thought I would drop all of you a line this morning as it is
the first normal Saturday morning I have had in a month. I am
sitting in front of my PC, cup of coffee on my desk, nice chair to
sit in, A/C is rocking, little puppy in my lap and my big black
lab on the floor behind me and no generators are running within my
hearing range!!!! This is a good morning in N. Louisiana!!
I rolled in home from Bay St. Louis, Mississippi Thursday night
about 10:00pm and havent had a spare moment since. It has been a
real experience working in the "Katrina" zone these last few
weeks. I will never forget all the people and all the support
that we have gotten. None of the things we have/will accomplished
would be possible if it were not for folks like all of you. I
appreciate all that yo have done from the bottom of my heart. I
know I haven't been on list and given updates like I should have,
but I have an excuse for that too. Part of the time we had no
bandwidth where we were staying and part/most of the time we would
get started at 7:00AM and not quit until 9-10:00pm and I was
totally exhausted. Sleeping on a floor was not a problem for 4 days!!
We are not through in Bay St Louis or Waveland as we are still
connecting shelters..etc. We also have a BH link to make into the
Port of Bienville (15miles?) where there are many jobs at
different Port facilities and factories like GE and an Crude oil
crack plant (no smart alec comments on the crack plant) as well
as the only sewer waste disposal plant for Hancock county that
serves Bay ST Louis and Waveland. I talked with Joe Laura
yesterday and we are going to join backhauls at our Mississippi
Power tower and his Lyman, Mississippi tower. I gave him two
Tranzeo TR-5a-N radios and two 3' dishes yesterday to make that
possible and he was headed out to hang that gear yesterday. He
also offered us a place to set up camp in D'Iberville where we
could stay for the duration of our campaign down there. I am also
working on a deal with 'Rescue International" that would join our
network with theirs in Slidell, Louisiana on a water tank owned by
the town. This would give us redundancy on both ends (one 6meg and
one DS3)as well as provide fail over redundancy for both of these
other groups. I thought it was a pretty sweet deal for all of us!
We are still lacking getting into Pass Christian, Mississippi and
we really need to get that done. I have access to two towers in
the area, but am lacking help at this point in time. It would be
really nice to have someone else who can/will climb and hang this
gear. I have everything it takes to put a 5.x Backhaul and 2.4 AP
with an omni there as well as a Trango 900AP and omni. We could
use a few more DB clamps, but short of that we have what we need
to complete these efforts. We need to do the same thing when we
get to Port of Bienville - - - exact same set up and gear. ANY
VOLUNTEERS?
Thanks Y'all
