SMPP 3.4 interface in OsmoNITB

by Harald Welte

Hi all, in case you follow the changelog, you will already have seen this coming: OsmoNITB now has a SMPP interface for submitting MT-SMS. This is by no means some kind of competition to a more complete SMSC developed by other people on this list, but it was a quick solution to a requirement of a commercial user. You can use it to submit SMS identifying the recipient subscriber either by his extension or his IMSI. OsmoNITB will also send SMPP ALERT NOTIFICATION in case a previously detached subscriber comes online again. Contrary to the spec, you don't have to subscribe ot ALERT NOTIFICATIONS, but they will be sent to all ESME's registered. The SMPP interface supports both store-and-forward (via database) as well as forward/transactoin mdoe, where the SMS is attempted for immediate delivery, not buffered and will only send a positive SUBMIT-SM result in case it was acknowledged by the MS. You can submit both GSM charset as well as binary messages. UCS2 is not tested. multi-part SMS (or anything else using UDH) only works with binary SMS at this point, i.e. GSM alphabet encoded multi-part messages are broken. The interface will soon be extended to also cover MO-SMS, where you would configure a given destination address by VTY and then messages to that address would be forwarded to the ESME. Only SMPP 3.4 is currently supported. You will need libsmpp34 from git://git.osmocom.org/libsmpp34.git and need to build openbsc with '--enable-smpp' Regards, Harald -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

FYI: Testing/merging jolly/sms (and zecke/jolly-sms)

by Holger Hans Peter Freyther

Hi all, I have rebased jolly/sms and split it up (first use the routines that were moved to libosmocore and that create compile errors, then begin to use the DLSMS debug area, then the actual patches in a way that all of them compile to allow to bisect them). I am now manually testing them with the help of the sysmocom modem bank. There are various issues that needs to be resolved before the 29C3 to be able to use the code. I am just listing them here for reference. There is a double trans_free in the new code now that will lead to segfaults and various 'soft' failures. I am just including some log messages: gsm0411_smc.c:308 Cannot release yet current state: WAIT_CP_ACK gsm0411_smc.c:511 Message 0x332/1 unhandled at this state WAIT_CP_ACK. gsm0411_smc.c:517 RX Unimplemented CP msg_type: 0x332 gsm0411_smc.c:134 TX CP-ERROR, cause 97 (Message Type doesn't exist) gsm_04_11.c:913 Transaction contains SMS. gsm_04_11.c:441 RP-DATA (MO) without DST or TPDU ?!? gsm_04_11.c:420 TX: SMS RP ERROR, cause 96 (Invalid Mandatory Information) cheers holger

gsm and isdn at 29c3

by Andreas Eversberg

hi list, we (ccc meber and me) are trying to get a pri access line (primary rate isdn) this year. it will provide external connection for the poc (eventphone) and will also allow interconnection of gsm network with the rest of the world. it is not yet clear if we get this line, but we are working on it. the hardware and software side is already tested in our "labs". for connection between poc and gsm network (openbsc), we like to use lcr (linux-call-router via mncc interface). there are two ways to connect to eventphone, one via isdn line (or virtual isdn over ip) and another one via sip trunk. we like to use both ways for better testing. the registration process for gsm extensions is already set up by evenphone. visit https://www.eventphone.de to register your gsm extension. for syncing eventphone's database with hlr of openbsc, i can provide help. also i will provide helpdesk for gsm questions this year again. regards, andreas

2 x nanoBTS model 139 Available

by Stuart Baggs

Hi All We've upgraded a couple of our cells to model 165Gs and have the older model 139s we've removed available for sale. They're both in perfect working order and have been used with OpenBSC for a year now. Thanks

Hi all, I've been hearing all sorts of rumours about nano- pico- or femto-cells for sale in California, around $99 capable of G4/LTE. Does anybody know if that is fact-or-fiction? If true, might that be something for openbsc? Hans.

ChanModify

by Pierre Kim

<000f> bsc_api.c:315 Sending ChanModify for speech 1 1 <000c> rtp_proxy.c:258 Correcting frame difference of 38886 frames I used to get these messages when I make a call using osmo-nitb. But recently I updated to newest git version and I get something like <000b> bsc_api.c:374 Sending ChanModify for speech 0 1 <000b> bsc_api.c:118 Using non speech mode: 0 <000b> osmo_msc.c:73 Assignment complete should not have been reached. And I get no sound for my phones. There is a year gap between the previous version and the new version, so I couldn't locate exactly what change is causing this. Can somebody help me fixing it?

29C3 osmo-nitb sprint and issues

by Holger Hans Peter Freyther

Hi, as indicated in the previous mail there are some things to be done before we get to the venue. I would like to experiment with sprints to solve some of the stability issues we had with osmo-nitb. The idea is that we assemble (physically or online) and work on some specific issues of osmo-nitb that impact the quality of service for the upcoming event. I can provide food and snacks during these sprints and guidance on OpenBSC code. The first sprint is scheduled for the 9th, 10th (and maybe 11th) of November. There is no venue for it yet, maybe the CCCB. Please indicate if you are interested to join. The general list of osmo-nitb issues are: * Channel release process. There is a branch I created at the last congress but I have never tested it. This includes making a SAPI=3 local release, using the proper timeouts for the abnormal release making sure the SACCH is deactivated and some more issues. This requires quite a bit of testing. * Allow to block/unblock failing lchans. We have had this issue with Nokia BTS but it can happen on other BTS as well. E.g. a given timeslot might not be allocatable, or we get LCHAN ACT NACK. In that case OpenBSC should block the lchan. * smsqueue/auth/paths. In the past years we have seen that the smsqueue and other parts can get stuck because of the 'subscr_get_con' not being properly called in all error conditions. We need to review the code and check how things get stuck. * Handover testing and patching out the 'timestamp' adjusting or fixing it. Right now it can be used to add a lot of delay by switching cells. cheers holger
