OsmoSGSN has only two protocol stackings available: BSSGP/NS/UDP/IP and
BSSGP/NS/FR/GRE/IP. As such, you cannot directly interface any legacy
BSC (rather: PCU) without developing the respective NS-over-E1 related
code first. If you choose to go down that path, I'd be more than happy
to review + merge it into our project.
If you're running frame relay on your E1, you might use something like a
cisco router that can adapt the FR over GRE/IP and then attach it to
OsmoSGSN.
Regards,
Harald
