Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for initiating evolved general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (eGTP) indirect tunneling are disclosed. According to one method, the method occurs at a long term evolution (LTE) node simulator including a module for processing data packets. The method includes receiving a data packet associated with a user device. The data packet includes an endpoint identifier for identifying a first transceiver simulated by the LTE node simulator. The method also includes determining, using the endpoint identifier, whether the data packet should be processed by the module. The method further includes in response to determining that the data packet should be processed by the module, processing the data packet. The method also includes in response to determining that the data packet should not be processed by the module, initiating routing the data packet to a network node.

Abstract: The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for generating GTP encapsulated RTP packets in an LTE node simulator. According to one method, and LTE node simulator uses a first processing unit to generate prepackaged headers for RTP payloads. The first processing unit communicates the prepackaged headers to a second processing unit separate from the first processing unit within the LTE node simulator. The second processing unit assembles GTP packets by combining the prepackaged headers with the RTP payloads. The second processing unit transmits the GTP packets to a device under test.
