This is a 3GPP GGSN and PDN-GW implemented in Erlang. It strives to eventually support all the functionality as defined by 3GPP TS 23.002 Section 4.1.3.1 for the GGSN and Section 4.1.4.2.2 for the PDN-GW.
Messages:
- GTPv1 Create/Update/Delete PDP Context Request on Gn
- GTPv2 Create/Delete Session Request on S5/S8
From the above the following procedures as defined by 3GPP T 23.060 should work:
- PDP Context Activation/Modification/Deactivation Procedure
- PDP Context Activation/Modification/Deactivation Procedure using S4
- Intersystem Change Procedures (handover 2G/3G/LTE)
- 3GPP TS 23.401:
- Sect. 5.4.2.2, HSS Initiated Subscribed QoS Modification (without PCRF)
- Annex D, Interoperation with Gn/Gp SGSNs procedures (see CONFIG.md)
Experimental features may change or be removed at any moment. Configuration settings for them are not guaranteed to work across versions. Check CONFIG.md and NEWS.md on version upgrades.
- rate limiting, defaults to 100 requests/second
- metrics, see METRICS.md
The GGSN Gn interface supports RADIUS over the Gi interface as specified by 3GPP TS 29.061 Section 16. At the moment, only the Authentication and Authorization is supported, Accounting is not supported.
See RADIUS.md for a list of supported Attrbiutes.
Many thanks to On Waves for sponsoring the RADIUS Authentication implementation.
The following procedures are assumed/known to be NOT working:
- Secondary PDP Context Activation Procedure
- Secondary PDP Context Activation Procedure using S4
Other shortcomings:
- QoS parameters are hard-coded
The minimum supported Erlang version is 19.0.
Using tetrapak:
# tetrapak build check
Using rebar:
# rebar3 compile
A erGW installation needs a data path provider to handle the GTP-U path. This instance can be installed on the same host or a different host.
- for a data path suitable for GGSN/PGW see: GTP-u-KMod
- for a data path suitable for GTPhub see: GTP-u-EDP
erGW can be started with the normal Erlang command line tools, e.g.:
erl -setcookie secret -sname ergw -config ergw.config
Erlang/OTP 19 [erts-8.0.3] [source] [64-bit] [async-threads:10] [kernel-poll:false]
Eshell V8.0.3 (abort with ^G)
(ergw@localhost)1> application:ensure_all_started(ergw).
This requires a suitable ergw.config, e.g.:
[{setup, [{data_dir, "/var/lib/ergw"},
{log_dir, "/var/log/gtp-c-node"} %% NOTE: lager is not using this
]},
{ergw, [{sockets,
[{irx, [{type, 'gtp-c'},

The configuration is documented in CONFIG.md
This process can be simplified by using enit. A sample config that only requires minimal adjustment for IP's, hostnames and interfaces can be found in priv/enit/ggsn.
Install those files to / (root) and start with enit startfg ergw
