The continued technological advancement in the telecommunications sector and the continuing need to improve the services provided to subscribers have led to ongoing research to meet the growing demands.For these reasons, in this paper we implemented the testing procedures so as to take into account the feasibility studies in the field.Using both real-world networking equipment and laboratory equipment with advanced emulation and simulation capabilities, the versatility and timeliness of a 2G network have been highlighted.This is possible by integrating and interconnecting the available hardware, which through a firmware approach allowed us to make advanced scenarios that highlight the complexity of such a network.The University Laboratory outperforms the network of a telephone operator in terms of architectural complexity, due to its presence in the architecture of the Tektronix K1297, which provides testing, emulation, and network management features.
