Hye everyone,
i'm trying to build a small GSM Network using OpenBSC and nanoBTS. After the start of bsc_hack, when i try to scanned the network with my mobile station, i do find the right network. But when i try to register into this network, i'm not coming through. It's the first time that i'm trying to used OpenBSC and i do not exactly known how it works.
below, a part of the output coming out after the start of bsc_hack:

can someone please explains me if those outputs (about the Subscriber ID '28') are OK?

Hi,
You need to open registration.
telnet localhost 4242
and then
enable configure terminal network auth policy accept-all

Everything seems to work fine. You simply did not authorize your subscriber[s] to join the network yet. This is what we do using the 'authorized' field in the 'subscriber' SQL table.
Once a subscriber is authorized, it should get permission to join the network.

You need to modify the config-file. Put under network the following: auth policy accept-all
This will accept all MSs that want to register.

Which is a very DANGEROUS mode of operation, as chances are high it will accept some phone that has lost signal or is on international roaming! So even if you have legal permission to operate your own gsm network (such as a test license), an accept-all BTS will likely interfere with commercial GSM networks in your vicinity and you will end up selectively denying service to people.
This is punishable under criminal law in probably any country that I've ever heard of!
So pleaes use extreme caution and never run an accept-all network on a non-barred cell outside a faraday cage.

I agree with your comments in the strongest terms. DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY SURE OF ITS EFFECT ON THE LOCAL CELLULAR ENVIRONMENT.
Even if you do not directly interfere with the carrier's spectrum, you can still interfere with their service. Remember that you are interacting with the cellular carrier, indirectly, every time you exchange phones with them.

Thinking more about it, I've added a warning message to bsc_hack at startup if you run it in this mode.
