Guideline to create server for packetCommander

Hi,

this uses only KISS (AX.25) format to connect using TNC to a (listening TNC on a Server)?
as i want to create also this for using with LoRa as Packet alternative.

Not sure I fully understand the question, but here’s how it works:

Packet Commander uses AX.25 to establish a connected session and interfaces with a KISS TNC over BLE or TCP. The TNC handles HDLC framing and AFSK modulation. You could, in theory, use a TNC that uses a different transport protocol, as long as it’s compatible with what the node expects. The node still needs to speak AX.25 to manage the connection-oriented session.

The “server” just needs to send and receive plain ASCII text and handle the commands it receives.

will check some examples of “regular” VHF AX.25 packets servers for this to give it a try once i get the full process in my head. Thanks

This is a great primer on AX.25
