Hi
in order to decode Cipher Mode Command from Alcatel S-12, please accept a
patch to gsm0808.c
Without it OpenBSC rejects ciphering, and procedures are broken from MSC
side
@@ -305,6 +305,7 @@
[GSM0808_IE_CELL_IDENTIFIER] = { TLV_TYPE_TLV },
[GSM0808_IE_CHOSEN_CHANNEL] = { TLV_TYPE_TV },
[GSM0808_IE_LAYER_3_INFORMATION] = { TLV_TYPE_TLV },
+ [GSM0808_IE_LAYER_3_HEADER_INFORMATION] = { TLV_TYPE_TLV
},
[GSM0808_IE_SPEECH_VERSION] = { TLV_TYPE_TV },
[GSM0808_IE_CHOSEN_ENCR_ALG] = { TLV_TYPE_TV },
},
Right now there is a pilot with MNO, and Telscale SS7 Card runs code for
A-interface gateway,
converting BSSAP/SS7 to SCCPoverIP + rtp.
It seems that such a gateway also has to adapt OpenBSC to each particular
MSC.
As an example, DTAP portion of Cipher Mode Complete must be removed for
proper operation with S12.
Code will published as soon as pilot succeeds.
Best Regards,
Dmitri

Could we specify MSC model in the config the same way we specify BTS
model? Then we could have tweaks for each particular MSC with a simple
"if()".

Dear Dmitri,
thanks for your patch, it will of course be merged.

this is great news. Please let us know if you need any assistance. Did
I ever send you the protocol traces that you asked for?

I'm not sure if this really belongs into the gateway, or if we shouldn't
rather have this code in OsmoBSC itself.
So far, OsmoBSC has been used (to my knowledge) with Altobridge, Zynetix
(Globe Wireless) and Quortus.
We can introduce a 'msc model' in osmo-bsc, similar to having a 'bts
model', and then code e.g. generating 08.08 messages can selectively
check on the msc->model to have vendor-specific kludges.
Code will published as soon as pilot succeeds.
Great!

it's up to philosophy: if you are planning to keep a pure BSC code for
SCCPoverIP, or SS7 A-Interface as well.
In the second case, such a gateway is not needed at all, and my activities
make no sence
