+*** QuickStart ***
+
+REQUIREMENTS
+
+Linux 
+OpenGGSN was developed and tested using Redhat 7.1 and Redhat
+7.2. It should run also on other Linux distributions as well as
+FreeBSD and Solaris, but this is untested. Please tell me of any
+testing results.
+
+Tun
+Both ggsn and sgsnemu uses the tun package. You need at least tun
+version 1.1. See http://vtun.sourceforge.net/tun/ for instructions on
+installation. Tun should be included from linux kernel version 2.4, so
+you might not need to manually install tun.
+
+COMPILATION
+./configure
+make clean
+make
+
+INSTALLATION
+Need to be root to do this
+make install
+Add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf
+Run ldconfig
+
+RUNNING
+
+sgsnemu
+Edit the configuration file sgsnemu.conf found under
+openggsn/examples.
+Start the emulator using the command:
+
+  sgsnemu -c examples/sgsnemu.conf -l 10.20.30.50 -r 10.20.30.40 --apn internet
+
+This will cause the sgsn emulator to bind to local address 10.20.30.50
+and connect to the ggsn found at 10.20.30.40. It will first send off
+an ECHO_REQUEST message. After this it will attemt to establish a pdp
+context. If successful it will create a local interface and set up
+routing. Now you should be able to ping through the connection. Use a
+network analysator such as ethereal to monitor the traffic.
+
+ggsn
+Edit the configuration file ggsn.conf found under openggsn/examples.
+Start the ggsn using the command:
+  ggsn --fg -c examples/ggsn.conf -l 10.20.30.40 
+This will run the ggsn in foreground using the local interface
+10.20.30.40
+
+
+*** Features ***
+
+OpenGGSN is an open source implementation of GPRS Support Nodes
+(GSNs). It implements the GPRS tunneling protocol (GTP) version 0.
+
+OpenGGSN provides 3 components:
+* gtplib
+* ggsn
+* sgsnemu
+
+gtplib
+This library contain all functionality retating to the GTP
+protocol. Use this libraty if you want to implement your own
+GSN. Currently gtplib supports GTPv0.
+
+ggsn
+The ggsn implements a Gateway GPRS Support Node. The GGSN is a
+small application which is provided in order to test and demonstrate
+the use of gtplib. It is fully compliant to the 3GPP standards, but
+lack important functionality such as charging and management. Use this
+application as a starting point if you want to build your own GGSN
+with your own fancy VPN, management and charging functionality.
+
+sgsnemu This application emulates a Serving GPRS Support Node. sgsnemu
+enable you to test your 3GPP core network without the need to invest
+in a 3G radio access network. An important application of sgsnemu is
+the testing of roaming connectivity through a GPRS roaming exchange.
+
+*** Required software ***
+
+TUN 
+http://vtun.sourceforge.net/tun/ 
+
+Both ggsn and sgsnemu uses the tun package. You need at least tun
+version 1.1. See the above web page for instructions on installation.
+
+GENGETOPT
+http://www.gnu.org/software/gengetopt/gengetopt.html
+
+Gengetopt is required if you want to change the options defined in the
+cmdline.ggo source file. You need at least gengetopt version 2.8 (Not
+released yet 2002-12-12).
+
+If you are just going to compile the programs you don't need
+gengetopt.
+
+To use gengetopt do the following:
+cd ggsn
+../../gengetopt-2.8rc/src/gengetopt < cmdline.ggo --conf-parser
+insert #define _GNU_SOURCE in the top of cmdline.c to get rid of warnings.
+
+To use gengetopt do the following:
+cd sgsnemu
+../../gengetopt-2.8rc/src/gengetopt < cmdline.ggo --conf-parser
+insert #define _GNU_SOURCE in the top of cmdline.c to get rid of warnings.
+

+*** Compilation and Installation ***
+
+To generate everything:
+See http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_25.html#SEC25
+ 1 edit configure.in
+ 2 run aclocal
+ 3 run autoheader
+   (run automake --add-missing)
+ 4 run automake
+ 5 run autoconf
+ 6 run ./configure
+ 7 rin make clean
+ 8 run make
+ 9 run make install
+10 Add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf
+11 run ldconfig
+
+
+*** Installation of libraries
+
+cd gtp
+make install
+Add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf
+run ldconfig
+
+On RedHat add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf

+*** Running ggsn ***
+Use ggsn -h for a list of available options.
+
+*** Running sgsnemu ***
+Use sgsnemu -h for a list of available options.
