ONE NETWORK.
EVERY CONNECTION.

Real-time USRP routing telemetry, monitored Linux services, and operator controls for the SWLA-LINK digital link system.

USRP ENDPOINTS

Create port mappings for your existing Analog_Bridge, AllStar or other USRP-capable processes. New mappings are staged until service restart.

STAGED CONFIGURATION

Add a USRP endpoint

Real ports must be taken from existing bridge configuration. Do not use guessed values.
PROTECT THE LIVE NETWORK

Saving a port mapping does not bind a UDP listener immediately. Check existing service configurations, firewall exposure, NAT, and peer source ports before restarting LinkCore. It will not modify DVSwitch or AllStar for you.

NATIVE NETWORK GATEWAY / SWLA-LINK

YSF ↔ DMR BRIDGE

Connect the System Fusion reflector to the DMR Homebrew network. Configuration takes effect immediately—no LinkCore restart required.

CHECKING
VOICE ENGINE—Checking installation
GATEWAY PROCESS—No process
DMR TARGETTG 311995Linked bridge target
COMPLETE CONNECTION SETTINGS

Configure both sides of the bridge

YSF SIDE — use the real host/port of your YSF reflector. The network directory name is not a hostname. Confirm the DG-ID used by the reflector.
DMR SIDE — a Homebrew-compatible DMR master/server login is required. Use the bridge's assigned DMR ID and its actual master password.
Starts or reconnects the standalone bridge immediately when its engine is installed.

No logs yet.
STATUS ACCURACY & ON-AIR SAFETY

A running gateway process is not proof that the reflector or DMR master accepted its connection. LinkCore reports the process state and its logs honestly. Enter verified endpoints; this bridge can carry real traffic once connected. Avoid loops with existing YSF-to-DMR links and keep the old bridge in place until on-air tests pass.

INDEPENDENT DIGITAL VOICE TRANSPORT

NATIVE M17 RECEIVER

Connect directly to an M17 reflector without DVSwitch. Receive actual callsigns, streams and Codec2 audio. No RF transmit, bridge forwarding or external key-up occurs in this release.

NOT CONFIGURED
REFLECTOR LINK—Configured identity
VOICE FRAMES RECEIVED—Validated M17 UDP frames
CODEC2 AUDIO—Decoder availability
LIVE TRANSPORT / READ ONLY

Direct reflector receiver

STAGED SETTINGS

Connect your M17 reflector

Requires LinkCore restart; does not change existing DVSwitch services.
NO TEST TRANSMISSIONS

Only M17 control handshakes and keepalives are sent to the configured reflector. Voice frames are never transmitted. Receive audio requires system libcodec2 at 3200 bit/s. Public connection indicators reflect actual reflector acknowledgments, not a local process running. Confirm your reflector host and module with its administrator before enabling.

CONTROL PLANE / USRP

ROUTE MANAGER

Build directed audio paths, enable policies, and prevent multi-node routing cycles.

NEW CONNECTION

Define a route

Routes are created disabled. They can be enabled when the USRP engine is configured and ready; enabling a route does not switch on a disabled engine.

ROUTING POLICY

Directed connections

—
HALF-DUPLEX SAFETY

USRP source addresses are checked, transmitters are serialized, and a watchdog sends unkey when a source becomes stuck. External paths can still form loops outside LinkCore. Keep independent RF timeout and emergency-disconnect safeguards.

LIVE TELEMETRY / AUDIT LOG

NETWORK ACTIVITY

Read-only history of operator actions, service changes and router events, plus packet counters from this process.

USRP RECEIVED—Validated and unvalidated packets
BLOCKED / INVALID—Rejected arbitration or packet types
UNTRUSTED UDP SOURCES—Incorrect configured source IP/port

PUBLIC DASHBOARD / READ-ONLY

PUBLIC BRIDGE DASHBOARD

Configure the public status page that appears at link.swlalink.com ↗. It shows actual local service/USRP telemetry and authenticated adapter event reports; it never exposes private routing or operator sessions.

OPEN PUBLIC DASHBOARD ↗
NETWORK IDENTITY

Public status page settings

Associate public mode cards with existing systemd units for real local service status. Empty means NOT MONITORED. A running service is not proof of remote connectivity.
No reboot or LinkCore restart needed.
REAL DATA ONLY

Activity rows are added only by installed local adapter integrations. LinkCore cannot infer a callsign, BER, packet loss or RX monitor audio stream from an ordinary USRP packet. These fields will remain empty until authentic adapters are connected. Public GET endpoints do not expose systemd unit names, private addresses or admin configuration.

OPERATOR SETTINGS

SYSTEM SETTINGS

Set up live, read-only systemd monitoring and inspect LinkCore configuration without changing radio processes.

LOCAL SYSTEMD

Monitored services

Choose services actually installed on this server. Unit names are not treated as active until systemd confirms them.

OPERATIONAL BOUNDARIES

This dashboard monitors local systemd services but does not start, stop or rewrite existing DVSwitch services. USRP endpoints are staged. Digital codecs and transcoding remain in their existing services. Public access is through your HTTPS Nginx reverse proxy at link.swlalink.com.
