The gateway GPRS support node (GGSN) converts the incoming data traffic coming from the mobile users through the Service gateway GPRS support node (SGSN) and forwards it to the relevant network, and vice versa. The GGSN and the SGSN together form the GPRS support nodes (GSN) .
Read moreHow can I differentiate between SGSN and GGSN?
SGSN and GGSN are used for connecting our cell phones to mobile internet through GPRS, EDGE, HSPA and HSPA+ technologies in 2G GSM and 3G UMTS networks. SGSN is the main node that performs packet-switching functions, whereas GGSN is more of a router that connects SGSN to the external data networks .17 Kas 2019

The GSM architecture consists of three major interconnected subsystems that interact with themselves and with users through certain network interface . The subsystems are Base Station Subsystem (BSS), Network Switching Subsystem (NSS) and Operational Support Subsystem (OSS).
Read moreWhat is the role of GR in GPRS architecture?
The SGSN, for example, requests user addresses from the GPRS register (GR), keeps track of the individual MSs’ location, is responsible for collecting billing information (e.g., counting bytes), and performs several security functions such as access control .
