Sample configs for reproducing osmo-nitb behaviour with the split stack
by Rafael Diniz 23 Aug '19

23 Aug '19

Hi all, Today I'm working on updating my NuRAN unit with the new osmo stack in order to try to reproduce the same behavior of old osmo-nitb we use in production in Rhizomatica (with subscriber_create_on_demand feature on). I'm writing just in case someone already put online a set of config files with the parameters needed by such behavior set? ; ) ps: I have the new splip stack working fine here, I just need to modify my setup with new features to support subscriber_create_on_demand. Best regards, Rafael Diniz

Osmocom Village at CCC Camp 2019
by Harald Welte 31 Jul '19

31 Jul '19

Dear all, I've been asked by a number of pepole about a possible Osmocom village at the CCC Camp 2019. I personally didn't really have any plans, but given related e-mails and "encouragement" I went ahead and registered an "Osmocom Village", see https://signup.c3assemblies.de/assembly/3b8f7aa2-95d5-4c44-aadc-de8f2680e9c3 I also created a wiki page (as nobody else did, despite earlier discussion on IRC, SCNR) for coordinating related efforts at https://osmocom.org/projects/osmo-dev-con/wiki/CCC_Camp_2019 One of the bigger questions is about having a tent as well as some tables/benches to sit on and work. The Camp orga team nas been negotiating rates with a tent rental company, but to be honest I'm rather surprised by the extremely steep pricing. The smallest possible tent (6m x 3m) would cost 825 EUR. I'm not sure we want to raise that amount of money? Even if we'd be 10 people sharing it, its still 82.50 EUR per person. And that excludes any tables/chairs. I'm attaching the relevant parts of a mail from the assemblies orga team FYI. Please note there also is some kind of fragmentation / overlap with the team planning to run the GSM/3G networks at the camp, see Lynxis' related post at https://lists.osmocom.org/mailman/private/osmocom-event-orga/2019-June/0003… It's questionable whether it makes sense to have tow distinct 'villages', but given that e.g. I don't know anyone of that singularity city, I'm not sure if we'd either be welcome there, nor whether we'd want to associate us with them? Also, while the GSM network operation for sure has good reasons to mingle with the POC and whatever facilities they have, I'm not sure if the wider Osmocom community attendees unrelated to the GSM network operation wouldn't just be a disturbance/nuisance. In the end, to be honest, I personally do not feel I have the time and mental capacity to take on any additional tasks in terms of organizing anything. I just created the entry in c3assemblies as I was asked to, and I similarly created the related mailing list and wiki page. So please, anyone interested in making an Osmocom village happen one way or another, step up [and continue this discussion on the camp2019-village(a)lists.osmocom.org mailing list, without crossposting everywhere else :) Regards, Harald -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

Using trxcon/fake_trx with PDCH for TTCN3 tests
by Oliver Smith 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

Hello Vadim, I'm working on the TTCN3 tests for OsmoPCU. Harald told me, that there are a few tests existing tests (such as TC_ul_tbf), that had been developed with osmo-bts-virtual/virt_phy. He also said that since there is trxcon/fake_trx nowadays, it would be better to use that instead, if it supports PDCH. From a quick "git grep", it looks like PDCH is supported in trxcon. What do you think, should it work well enough to do the switch?

OpenBSC on 3rd party MSC
by wyao＠corrections.com 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

Hello All, I am working on get OpenBSC connected to a 3rd party MSC, I read from the Osmo document that I can use the bsc only mode and the osm-bsc instead of the osmo-nitb. Currently I had osmo-trx-uhd, osmo-bts-trx, osmo-bsc, and osmo-stp configured and and running, but I see a lot of below error logs in the osmo-stp console: ``````````````````````````` DLSS7 <000c> osmo_ss7.c:1468 asp-asp-dyn-0: xua_srv_conn_cb(): sctp_recvmsg() returned 56 (flags=0x80) DLM3UA <000f> m3ua.c:722 asp-asp-dyn-0: Received M3UA Message (XFER:DATA) DLM3UA <000f> m3ua.c:541 asp-asp-dyn-0: m3ua_rx_xfer DLM3UA <000f> m3ua.c:580 asp-asp-dyn-0: m3ua_rx_xfer(): M3UA data header: opc=337=0.42.1 dpc=185=0.23.1 DLSS7 <000c> osmo_ss7_hmrt.c:278 m3ua_hmdc_rx_from_l2(): dpc=185=0.23.1 not local, message is for routing DLSS7 <000c> osmo_ss7_hmrt.c:258 MTP-TRANSFER.req for DPC 185: no route! ```````````````````````````` On the BSC console, I am seeing a lot of: ``````````````````````````````` <0007> a_reset.c:106 A-RESET(msc-0)[0xb76ce0]{DISC}: (re)sending BSSMAP RESET message... <0007> osmo_bsc_sigtran.c:93 Sending RESET to MSC: RI=SSN_PC,PC=0.23.1,SSN=BSSAP ``````````````````````````````` Can anyone identify what is the issue here?

massive regressions in osmo-bts
by Harald Welte 26 Jul '19

26 Jul '19

Hi! Four builds ago, from build 585 onwards, we are seeing massive regressions in the BTS_Tests.ttcn test suite on osmo-bts master: https://jenkins.osmocom.org/jenkins/view/TTCN3/job/ttcn3-bts-test/test_resu… I think this matches roughly when the TRXDv1 protocol changes were merged, it would be great if anyone making changes to osmo-bts or the test suite around July 21/22nd could investigate what's happening here. Tests against osmo-bts-latest are doing fine, so I think we can exclude a bug in the test suite.

Hi all, I'd also like to test SMS and CSFB in LTE. I have some experience with the Osmocom GSM stack, but not much with the NextEPC LTE. Could you point me which fields should I set in the configuration files?
