Overview

OsmoMSC is the Osmocom implementation of a Mobile Switching Center (MSC). It implements the following interfaces:

3GPP AoIP over M3UA or SUA towards BSCs, for example OsmoBSC, possibly via a STP like OsmoSTP
3GPP IuCS over M3UA or SUA towards RNCs or HNBGWs, for example OsmoHNBGW, possibly via a STP like OsmoSTP
Osmocom GSUP (alternative to SS7/TACP/MAP) towards an HLR such as OsmoHLR
Subscriber management
Supplementary Services (SS/USSD)
Short Message Service (SMS)
inter-MSC handover
SMPP v3.4 for external SMS entities (minimal SMSC is built-in)
MGCP for controlling an external Media Gateway like OsmoMGW
MNCC for external call-control handlers, such as osmo-sip-connector for SIP trunks
Osmocom VTY interface for configuration + introspection
Osmocom CTRL interface for programmatic access to internal state/configuration
