Discussion of the network stack jumped quickly from the physical layer to the application layer. What about DNS in a small-i internet system? If we go with local, web-based apps, don't the users need a familiar way to address them? Or do we just punt and make everyone use dotted quads? Surely we don't want to have everyone download a special .hosts file to their laptops and phones?

Great episode. Agree with comment above about DNS. Wanted to know if there is a user guide for BlackFlower??

Also, Kenneth, have you thought about building a Linux image (RPi image?) for EmComm with BlackFlower, Mattermost, etc? Everything you need in a box?

After several days I actually finished the podcast. The topic of making your own network reminds me of what we did in the industrial world.

Our IT folks would shutdown plant switches to update or reconfigure and for real time data between parts of our process, often shutting down the production. We initially used a proprietary network (typically Profibus, ControlNet or similar) which carried critical data while connecting the typical ethernet port from the PLC for program access.

A few years ago we went to a separate ethernet system from the plant using our own controlled Cisco based switches. Those switches would have 1 port to the plant and everything else was internal. We can operate no matter what the IT folks are doing. This is what you are striving for on the EOC comms.

I am a new ham, and relatively new to the podcast (this is my second episode).
This podcast was very interesting and informative, however it left me wondering, what is the point of amateur radio in emergency communications? 😀

When talking about printing, if you look at FEMA 100,200,700,800 and the forms that are to be used they are all paper. A great reason to have access to a printer :)
