Hello Harald,
Hi Nik,
Well, you are asking the lcr author to implement something for yate. I

SCCP procedures. This is only used on the GSM A interface and not to be
mistaken with the datagram-oriented SCCP (UDT only) used by TCAP/MAP.
In fact, it might make more sense to use the existing libosmo-sccp and
either
1) add SCCP-lite (IPA multiplex) support to yate
or
2) implement M3UA as a transport for osmo-bsc's existing libosmo-sccp
and use that to connect to yate.
But then, I am not aware of any commercial OpenBSC user who has any
interest in OpenBSC with classic A interface. Everybody wants to move
away from TDM and to an all-IP RAN.
Furthermore, at least as far as I know, yate may not support AMR/EFR
codecs, which makes it somewhat limited in the context of GSM. I may be
wrong here, though.
Regards,
Harald
