Probably time for a config file ;) As I understand it, the IMSI Attach/Detach, which is signaled by the ATT flag in SYS_INFO 3 is used to keep track if a phone is actually available. (IMSI Attach is used when the phone is turned on and IMSI Detach when it is turned off). This way the network does not need to page the phone if it knows that it is turned off and can immediately signal to the caller that the phone is not available. If I remember, the ATT flag is not set in the BS11_Init sample code. Best regards, Dieter -- Dieter Spaar, Germany spaar(a)mirider.augusta.de

TMSI's and Identity theft?
by Holger Freyther 10 Jan '09

10 Jan '09

Hey Guys, I'm currently implementing the CM Service Request of GSM 04.08 and I wonder about the following: 1.) Some phones send us the TMSI of their current network 2.) One can ask the phone for the IMEISV/IMSI 3.) One can accept the LOCATION UPDATING REQUEST (or wait) 4.) A rogue MS could now request a channel with the BTS of the original network 5.) Could send a CM Service Request with the TMSI of the original phone and claim to not support A5 and such... 6.) Could initiate a call on the behalf of the other phone...? 7.) What is IMSI detached, I have not yet seen it... but it could solve such things? So far I have only seen TMSI reallocation complete messages... what am I missing? These messages are not encrypted right? One just would need to know the right channel/paging group and such? Is this known? plausible? totally off? z. _______________________________________________ OpenBSC mailing list OpenBSC(a)lists.gnumonks.org https://lists.gnumonks.org/mailman/listinfo/openbsc

Hi! I have created openbsc-commits(a)lists.gnumonks.org which carries all commits to our svn server.

[PATCH] user-configurable ARFCN
by Harald Welte 05 Jan '09

05 Jan '09

Hi! One of the most important features missing is the ability to run on a user-configured ARFCN (frequency). This patch should fix the problem, but I didn't apply it since I cannot test right now while travelling. zecke, daniel: Can you please test 1) if the patch doesn't break anything (i.e. if no '-f' parameter is specified, it should continue to use ARFCN 123) 2) if the '-f' commandline argument works, e.g. running the BTS on ARFCN 122 or similar.
