Hi All
I run an OGN Range service, and it appears to be being flooded by PAW stations, and more specifically by PWCV32QG & PWWestBfd:
[root@ognrange kevin]# ncat localhost 50000 | grep "\->" | awk -F \> '{print $2}' | head -n 1000 | sort | uniq -c
2 AIRS03
1 FLRDDBCB5
38 PAW3E7B05
1 PAW402956
13 PAW402ECC
10 PAW404A8B
22 PAW404DE6
99 PAW4050B7
16 PAW40540D
41 PAW405D94
21 PAW405FB1
368 PWCV32QG
368 PWWestBfd
I am not familiar enough with the APRS network that OGN use for passing information around - but at least the PWCV32QG & PWWestBfd lines look very out of place?

PWWestBfd is currently sat next me, and appears to be running as per normal from what I can see …
Are you saying it's picking up too much traffic .? (I'm not far from EMA .....)
-
I saw this recently, but I am looking now and I am not seeing anything from CV3
How old is your data Kevin ?
was this 10:31 this morning ?
The offending IP Addresses I am seeing are :-
PWCV32QG 94.7.142.64
PWCV32QG 5.80.179.158
PWCV32QG 81.159.47.87
I think there may also be a bug due to disconnects, this needs investigating.
**EDIT** Kevin how old is your data PWWestBfd has been down since Monday

Hi All
That data was live from this morning, I ran the command several times and got the same sort of results every time. All of the 'spam' messages were station Beacons, not aircraft position reports unfortunately.
Running it this evening I seem to be getting a few other stations 'spamming':
[root@ognrange kevin]# ncat localhost 50000 | grep "\->" | awk -F \> '{print $2}' | head -n 1000 | sort | uniq -c
2 OGN1A5A06
249 PWCV32QG
251 PWEDXD
249 PWWestBfd
247 PWWilmcot
2 UKBDY
.
All again are Beacons, rather than position reports:

Hi Kevin
I think I need to understand the capture window you are looking at
This message should be 2 in 5 mins

The first and second post was just based on the time it took to get 1,000 lines out of the fetchrange3.pl script.
The most recent post was based on 1 min, and then 10 mins worth of data.
For all of them, the script prints out more than 1 line for some APRS lines it receives - so I wouldn't be surprised to see 1 APRS Beacon showing up as up to 3 counts in the uniq -c output - but clearly those 4 are showing up many hundreds of times more.
I will send you my number, get in touch if access to the box helps.
Cheers
Kev

Hi Kevin
OK, this is weird, I have a Client written in C, and I run it and pipe the output to grep PWCV3, I am seeing nothing
I have another process that runs to see when this was last observed and it was here
19 PWCV32QG v20190511 Tue May 14 06:32:28 BST 2019 DOWN + 143932
I have seen nothing since 06:32 this morning
But I AM seeing a constant stream from PWEDXD
I need to investigate what could cause this to loop
Thx
Lee

I wonder if the difference is to do with which servers are you connecting to? Fetchrange connects to:
my @servers = ( 'glidern1.glidernet.org:10153',
'glidern2.glidernet.org:10153',
'glidern3.glidernet.org:10153',
'glidern4.glidernet.org:10153',
'aprs.glidernet.org:10152' );

Yes there is still an issue with PWWestBfd
Sean if you can log onto your OGN-R and run the following command
$ nc localhost 50002
This may give me a clue, if there is too much text, possibly
$ nc localhost 50002 | grep "INTF-OGN"
Thx
Lee

Hi Kevin
How is it looking now, I have put in a lot of debug monitors.
I think the issue was that the OGN Client was not connecting to the server, causing the PAW Client to keep connecting.
I am unsure why the OGN Client was failing to connect, I dont have good remote logging for this process
Thx

For everyone interested, I think I know why this has been happening, and it is related to this which I posted on glidernet
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/openglidernetwork/WSx-KUqBicE/wPklFfeOAQAJ
I am now reporting back to the central server when this happens, and I am seeing these stations fail
PWChelt,1558175092,38,EVENT,OGN-RF,DEMOD,FAIL
PWRhiwFaw,1558175092,37,EVENT,OGN-RF,DEMOD,FAIL

A reboot should fix this, and I am considering putting an automatic reboot in when this occurs, but I am a little reluctant to do that without resolving what the issue is.

That's going deep into the workings of OGN. :o
I not there has been no rush to reply :-\
