Harald Welte 632e843e5f Rename OpenGGSN to OsmoGGSN
Osmocom has maintained this program since about 7 years now, while
the original author / copyright holder has completely disappeared.

With the introduction of Osmocom-style CTRL and VTY interfaces,
the way how the program is used and configured has substantially
changed.  In order to avoid confusion in terms of configuration file
format etc, let's rename it to OsmoGGSN.

OsmoGGSN/FreeBSD notes
FreeBSD support is experimental, please test and report bugs. The FreeBSD port is
tested on FreeBSD 4.x, but may also work on 5.x series.
1. Compiling
You will need GNU make installed, standard BSD make will not work.
Everything should be straight-forward, run ./configure then gmake.
2. Kernel tuning
Your kernel needs to include tun driver (GENERIC kernel does), make sure your
kernel config file contains the line
pseudo-device tun
or load the tun kernel module manually by issuing "kldload if_tun" as root.
OpenGGSN doesn't try to load the module itself right now.
Also make sure your kernel has IP Forwarding enabled (it is not by default).
Add the line
gateway_enable=yes
to your /etc/rc.conf or manually issue "sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=1"
3. Known problems
After ggsn is started, you have to manually add the route for your address pool:
route add 192.168.0.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 -iface tun0
