I presume you're talking about the "several APN behind one GGSN IP"
which requires the de-coupling of the UDP socket from the gtp
net-device?
I actually think it is a very straight forward idea what Andreas is
proposing, and I see no bloat associated. It's rather like splitting
existing combined functionality in two parts, which can still be used
together, but also be used separately.
Or are you referring to something else?
In any case, I'm looking forward to the related technical discussion on
this mailing list[s] :)
Regards,
Harald
