Re: SMPP Alert Notifications

Furthermore, I'm not convinced your !=PERIODIC will do what you want, as NORMAL will also happen between location areas, so neither ATTACH nor PERIODIC. One idea is to add logic to osmo-msc to distinguish whether this really was a new subscriber that was previously unknown to the MSC (and Then send "Available"), or simply send no SMPP notifiation at all if the subscriber was previously already known to osm-msc. This way no protocol changes need to be introduced at all. The alternative would be to add a new, non-standard IE whihc just passes the LU type transparently through. I think either of the two ideas I outlined above could go master.
