Hi Pablo,
Thanks for the info!
Just went through the code, and wanted to ask if I am right that this implementation does
not support GTP-U echo request/reply yet?
I am asking because according to the specs. this is an optional feature, but in practice
there are quite a lot of ENB products that require a response to the GTP-U Echo Req. they
send, otherwise they are not going to start forwarding any data on the GTP-U path. The
reason for this is that in practice the ENB is always connected to more than one MME, and
the only way for the ENB to know which SGW is available is to send GTP-U echo requests to
check the availability of the service.
Just noticed that the link for libgtpnl is not working yet.
Regards,
Csaba

Hi Harald,
Sorry for that, I forgot about the kernel part.
Is there anyway to try it before that happens? I don't want to pester anybody. :-)
Wait for 4.7-rc1 to be released or compile this git tree:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git
In userspace, you require libgtnl, get a fresh git clone from:
http://git.osmocom.org/libgtpnl/
and openggsn:
http://git.osmocom.org/openggsn/
Then, you have to run:
# autoreconf -fi
# ./configure --enable-gtp-linux
# make
to compile the gtp linux kernel driver support. Then indicate
'gtp-linux' in your ggsn.conf file.
