OsmoSGSN¶
Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN). As such it implements the GPRS Mobility Management (GMM) and SM (Session Management).
The SGSN implements- the Gb interface to the BSS's (like the OsmoPCU or an ip.access nanoBTS)
- the Gp interface with its GTP protocol to one or more Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) like OsmoGGSN.
- the IuPS interface with its RANAP protocol to onre or more RNCs or HNB-GWs like OsmoHNBGW
- the GSUP Interface/Protocol towards OsmoHLR
OsmoSGSN is available from the http://git.osmocom.org/osmo-sgsn/ repository. In order to build it, you will need a libgtp installation from the
OsmoGGSN project.

Binary Packages¶
Osmocom provides binary packages for several flavors of Debian and Ubuntu GNU/Linux on a variety of architectures (i586, x86_64, armhf, armv7l). Unless you are a software developer interested in developing on Osmocom, it is recommended you use those packages instead of building from source.
