Is it possible to setup a MD9600 Hotspot Mode using DVSwitch (MMDVM_Bridge) in debian 10 ?
I already install DVSwitch server and running MMDVM_bridge, and set up using the /dev/ttyACM0 , is the port detected in debian
Thanks in advance

I use MMDVMHOST on my debian bookworm together with MD-9600 in MMDVM hotspot mode , works fine.
Using "UARTPort=/dev/ttyACM0"

As far as I recall my work with this program, MMDVM_bridge basically does not interact with the MMDVM modem. It is a software stub for other things.

Hotspot needs to be enabled in the Options in the firmware, otherwise the Com port will communicate with the MMDVMHost serial protocol

Reading the MMDVM Bridge docs e.g. https://www.qsl.net/kb9mwr/projects/dv/ ... Bridge.pdf

It says "All Ports are UDP"

i.e this software is a network connectivity application

You need to run MMDVMHost to commicate with the MD9600 acting as a MMDVM modem.
