Thanks guys for your help
I've been using OpenBTS too long and assumed setting up asterisk with the nanoBTS with
NITB would operate with similar configurations. I couldnt quite understand why there was
no pairing of IMSI's in the asterisk configs but that is all self explanitory now and
thus I now have calls routing through (all be it with no audio yet!) but I am sure that
will be solved easily. I am mainly wanting to use Asterisk integration so I can use this
to inject SMS's and have full control of the entire PDU to send different types of
SMS. I chose Asterisk purely because I have a set up to do this with openBTS but wanting
to upgrade to nanoBTS. Maybe I am trying to create something that has no doubt been done
before but I can't find any documentation on how send a full SMS-Deliver PDU in to the
nanoBTS. Any knowledge or pointers here would be great, this is something that I wouldnt
mind to contribute to if there is not this type of capability already available. Regards

Anyway my problem is that I don't know how to
prevent OpenBSC from using its
own HLR and instead forward all phones that want to register to my nanoBTS
to do so via Asterisk.
Unfortunately, NITB doesn't have an external interface for
registrations yet and thus LCR can't forward them to SIP.
We use Freeswitch instead of Asterisk and there we configure
Freeswitch in "gateway" mode. In this mode where FS doesn't take
decision about a user availability bu itself, it just forwards all
calls to relevant interface (LCR SIP interface in this case).
Adding an external interface for user registration to NITB and
converting it to SIP would be a great step towards a more SIP-friendly
architecture. Feel free to contribute ;)
