Package: osmocom-bsc
Architecture: any
-Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}
-Description: GSM Base Station Controller; BSC-only version of OpenBSC. Needs a real MSC!
- Classical BSC which requires MSC to operate.
+Depends: ${shlibs:Depends},
+ ${misc:Depends}
+Description: GSM Base Station Controller
+ This is the BSC-only version of OpenBSC. It requires a Mobile Switching Center
+ (MSC) to operate.
+ .
+ You might rather prefer to use osmocom-nitb which is considered a
+ "GSM Network-in-a-Box" and does not depend on a MSC.

Description: GSM Network-in-a-Box, implements BSC, MSC, SMSC, HLR, VLR
- All the GSM network components bundled together.
+ This is the Network-in-a-Box version of OpenBSC. It has all the GSM network
+ components bundled together. When using osmocom-nitb, there is no need for a
+ Mobile Switching Center (MSC) which is needed when using osmocom-bsc.
Package: osmocom-ipaccess-utils

+Depends: ${shlibs:Depends},
+ ${misc:Depends}
Description: Command line utilities for ip.access nanoBTS
- Utilities specific for ip.access unit.
+ This package contains utilities that are specific for nanoBTS when being used
+ together with OpenBSC. It contains mainly three tools: ipaccess-find,
+ ipaccess-config and ipaccess-proxy.

Description: Command line utilities for Siemens BS-11 BTS
- Utilities specific for BS-11 unit.
+ There is a tool in this package for configuring the Siemens BS-11 BTS.
+ Additionally, it contains one tool for making use of an ISDN-card and the
+ public telephone network as frequency standard for the E1 line.

Description: Osmocom Serving GPRS Support Node
- SGSN implementation.
+ This is an implementation of the GPRS Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN). As
+ such it implements the GPRS Mobility Management (GMM) and SM (Session
+ Management).
+ .
+ The SGSN connects via the Gb-interface to the BSS (like the osmo-pcu or an
+ ip.access nanoBTS), and it connects via the GTP protocol to a Gateway GPRS
+ Support Node (GGSN) like openggsn.
Package: osmocom-gbproxy

Description: Osmocom GPRS Gb Interface Proxy
- Proxy for Gb interface.
+ The purpose of the Gb proxy is to aggregate the Gb links of multiple
+ BSS's and present them in one Gb link to the SGSN.
+ .
+ This package is part of OpenBSC and closely related to osmocom-sgsn.

+Depends: ${shlibs:Depends},
+ ${misc:Depends}
+Recommends: osmocom-bsc
Description: Osmocom Base Station Controller Network Address Translation
- Network address translation for BSC.
+ This NAT is useful for masquerading multiple BSCs behind one. It listens
+ for incoming BSCs on port 5000 and connects to a specified Mobile Switching
+ Center (MSC).
+ .
+ This package is part of OpenBSC and closely related to osmocom-bsc.
