I see.  In terms of open source options, I think it would boil down to
then write some SMSC emulation either using:

a) the TCAP/MAP stack Holger wrote in Smalltalk
b) the TCAP/MAP stack of Mobicents (Java, I have no experiene with it),
c) the signerl Erlang TCAP/MAP stack of Vance Shipley and myself (not so
   production ready but should be sufficient for some tests
d) using TCAP + MAP from within TTCN-3 / Eclipse TITAN

I don't know much about option 'b'.  I would argue that 'a' or 'c' are
the more likely candidates. 'd' seems cumbersome as the TCAP state
machines are not yet implemented.

However, in any of the above, I would expect quite a bit of develpoment
effort is required to get to the goal of emulating the SMSC (I'm not
sure if one man-week would be sufficient).

This is great.  We're just about to set this up at the sysmocom office
for interop testing ourselves.
