-Remote/portable //personal// node.  
- 
-Similar setup to [[aze|MB7AZE]] but without the connection to ''Echolink'' and monitoring fewer TalkGroups. I use TG 8 as a  
-testing ground to keep my traffic off the rest of the system. 
- 
-Usual method of deployment is to use a small //MiFi// 4G router as an access point for the Raspberry Pi to reach the internet.  
-When this is in use the node is on an inaccessible remote network and I can't access it to make changes or shut it down. 
- 
-I use a "Remote SSH Tunnel" to get access to it from my home LAN. 
- 
-The idea is that the remote node makes a SSH connection to a machine on my LAN (I have an open port in the router forwarded to an internal 
-machine for SSH access. This is straightforward, the remote Pi is logged on to my PC in the shack. 
- 
-Along with this incoming connection from the remote node is the request to set up a "Remote Tunnel" - this makes the internal PC here set up a listening SSH port and a connection to it will be sent //backwards// to the __remote node__, **hidden within** the existing SSH connection.  
- 
-This //tunnel// will now accept incoming connections from  machines **inside** my LAN and forward them to the remote node. I can now effectively SSH to the remote SVXLink node as if it were on my LAN in the shack. 
- 
-The magic is all done in SSH, but to make it more robust I use a package called ''autossh'' which is a wrapper around ''SSH'' that monitors for loss of the tunnel connection and initiates a new connection automatically if it should fail for any reason. 
- 
-Here is the script that fires it all off:
