OpenGGSN on live networks
by Bjørn Remseth 06 Oct '16

06 Oct '16

Hi I’m Bjørn, I work for Telenor Digital. We’re running a live experimental network (called “loltel” :-) that is technically operating as a full stack MVNO (mobile virtual network operator), renting network access from Telenor Norway. It’s mostly but not exclusively based on open source components. When we started up about two years ago we considered using OpenGGSN, but couldn’t figure out how to get it into an operational state and we couldn’t find anyone to help us, so we chose a commercial vendor instead. But today we’re again thinking of using OpenGGSN for an experiment, possibly in our live network. Are there anyone on this list with experiences either with running it in a live network, or with thoughts about how to do it / what would be necessary to get the job done? We’d love to have a discussion with you. Hope to hear from you soon. Best wishes Bjørn -- Bjørn Remseth --- Senior Software Engineer (+47) 47900184 | rmz(a)comoyo.com <mailto:ane@comoyo.com> | www.comoyo.com <http://www.comoyo.com/>

Installation error
by Ashish Kurian 06 Oct '16

06 Oct '16

Hi All, I downloaded the tar ball release libgtpnl-1.0.1.tar.gz and un tared it. Then I tried to build and install the package. But the command sudo ./configure is giving me the following error. configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in build-aux "."/build-aux Do you know what could be the reason for this error? Best Regards, Ashish Kurian

However, the ICMP requests I send are not GTP encapsulated as I would have expected, and I can only see the "downlink" data (the ping requests, and not the replies). The ping is successful though, so the replies are sent some way. Let's say tun1 is the SGSN emu device and you have a ICMP Request in it. The kernel will tell the sgsnemu process that new data is present and the sgsnemu will then wrap the data with GTP-u and send it to the GGSN. So you should be able to see the wrapped data on the loopback device. > And like I mentioned before, I can not force delays in packet delivery by temporarily pausing the GGSN with ctrl-z. > > What I did was, exactly what you proposed.

As you trace on tun0 the GGSN has received GTP-u and wrote it into tun0. Now the kernel decides not to respond. E.g. maybe your cloud image has some kind of firewall, you could try to disable the rp_filter on tun0, etc.

Dropping packet from invalid source address
by Peter Lithner 05 Oct '16

05 Oct '16

Hi I'm trying out openGGSN, currently running it on an Ubuntu 16.04 VM in Amazon. The reason I'm doing this is part of an evaluation I'm helping out with for a customer in the Telco-industry. I have been able to install, and run ggsn and sgsnemu to the point of sending the ECHO and creating the PDP-C (see attachment). However, I can't see that a network interface is created after the PDP-C has been accepted. According to the README on https://github.com/osmobuntu/openggsn that should happen: "After this it will attempt to establish a pdp context. If successful it will create a local interface and set up routing." Anyway, I have probably missed something in the setup. If you have any suggestions, that would be highly appreciated! What I did so far is: Install sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install openggsn Create "virtual" interfaces (since I'm running everything on the same machine. Not sure if this is the right way to do it though) ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up I also did the following steps, but I'm not sure exactly what they do... pardon my ignorance! 1. Add the following line to /etc/modules.conf: alias char-major-10-200 tun 2. depmod -a Start GGSN ggsn -c ggsn.conf --fg -l 192.168.1.2 --net 192.168.0.0/24 --dynip 192.168.0.0/24 After this I can see the new tun0 tun0: flags=81<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 destination 192.168.0.1 inet6 fe80::9ea3:6876:c4ce:fc96 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> unspec 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 txqueuelen 500 (UNSPEC) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 7 bytes 448 (448.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 send ECHO (successfully) sgsnemu --listen 192.168.1.3 --remote 192.168.1.2 --dns 10.20.38.51 --timelimit 10 --contexts 0 Send ECHO + Create PDP-C sgsnemu --listen 192.168.1.3 --remote 192.168.1.2 --dns 10.20.38.51 --timelimit 10 --contexts 1 --apn internet --imsi 240011234567890 --msisdn 46702123456 --createif --defaultroute Which outputs the following: Using DNS server: 10.20.38.51 (10.20.38.51) Local IP address is: 192.168.1.3 (192.168.1.3) Remote IP address is: 192.168.1.2 (192.168.1.2) IMSI is: 240011234567890 (0xf098765432110042) Using NSAPI: 0 Using GTP version: 1 Using APN: internet Using selection mode: 1 Using MSISDN: 46702123456 Initialising GTP library <000c> gtp.c:700 GTP: gtp_newgsn() started After printing this line, sgsnemu stays very silent for 30-ish seconds, after which it prints (all in one go): Setting up interface Done initialising GTP library Sending off echo request Setting up PDP context #0 Waiting for response from ggsn........

I have a reproducable segfault in the SGSN, bisecting to below commit: (To bisect, I rearranged the commits, see branches neels/sndcp_bisect and neels/sndcp_bisect_bad in openbsc) ▶ git bisect bad 97991d56800fdc913e6fdf95cac68d598f66b498 is the first bad commit commit 97991d56800fdc913e6fdf95cac68d598f66b498 Author: Philipp <pmaier(a)sysmocom.de> Date: Fri Aug 26 17:00:21 2016 +0200 SNDCP: add RFC1144 header compression functionality - Add module to handle compression entities - Add module to control header compression - Introduce VTY commands for heade compression configuration - Add changes in sndcp and llc to integrate header compression Change-Id: Ia00260dc09978844c2865957b4d43000b78b5e43 :040000 040000 de76aa0ab5dc11ad81666f9f4c933544eedcd4f1 c199c47cd19b5a1a334020a598dba3e0be922fe5 M openbsc Reproduce: Have a 3G UE try to establish a PDP context.

GTP-u Kernel module
by Ferrer Guasch Vicent 25 Sep '16

25 Sep '16

Hi! We are affiliated with Aalto University and conducting research in the area of mobile networks. We have been improving Amit Chawre's project NwEPC<https://sourceforge.net/projects/nwepc/>. I saw your implementation of the GTP-U kernel module and I started to check If I could integrate it to this project. I couldn't find any roadmap of the GTP-U in your website. Do you have any future plans for it? I am interested in the following points: - Creation, modification and removal of unidirectional tunnels, opposed to the creation of both tunnels without possibility of modification. In the real EPC nodes, the tunnels are never created at the same time. Also they can be removed due to the UE moving to Idle state (i.e. GTP downlink between the eNB and the S-GW). - Possibility to send End Marker and direct and indirect forwarding tunnels. - The S-GW receive from a GTP endpoint and sends it to a different one. What mechanisms do you have in mind to do this? - Support of multiple EPS bearers for the same UE. - Policy control, enforcement and statistics reporting (probably integrating it with netfilter). How can I contribute to this project. Should I work on the whole kernel tree? I have no experience with kernel module development. If you want I could work on some API modification proposals and designs. Kind Regards, Vicent Ferrer Guasch PhD candidate Networking Technology Department of Communications and Networking Aalto University
