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 ;)
