Hi Experts,
I want to integrate EPC core (Open5GS) with open-source SGSN, It would be very helpful if anyone can share any document where I can find the installation steps and all.
Thanks in advance for your valuable time and consideration.
Regards, Sandip Biswas

In case this is a commercial inquiry, you can always reach out to companies and/or freelancers providing paid services around open5gs and/or osmocom.
Your subject mentions S3/S4. This appears to imply that osmo-sgsn implements the S4 interface. As far as I recall, this is an optional interface within the 3GPP architecture. In fact, the SGSN at that point is not just a SGSN anymore, but 3GPP calls it a S4-SGSN. We did not mention that term anywhere on osmocom.org in the context of osmo-sgsn, as osmo-sgsn is a classic SGSN (for 2G and 3G), and not a S4-SGSN.
To this day, the only integration between open5gs and Osmocom CNI is the SGs interface for both CSFB as well as SMS-over-SGs. The Gn interface is used for mobility between GERAN/UTRAN (osmo-sgsn) and EUTRAN/EPC (PGW).
We'd be very happy to see anyone contributing code or funding of extending osmo-sgsn from a SGSN to a S4-SGSN.
Kind regards, Harald
