 Installation
 ------------
 
-To build DPDK with the KASUMI_PMD the user is required to download
-the export controlled ``libsso_snow3g`` library, by requesting it from
-`<https://networkbuilders.intel.com/network-technologies/dpdk>`_.
-Once approval has been granted, the user needs to log in
-`<https://networkbuilders.intel.com/dpdklogin>`_
-and click on "Snow3G Bit Stream crypto library" link, to download the library.
+To build DPDK with the SNOW3G_PMD the user is required to download
+the export controlled ``libsso_snow3g`` library, by registering in
+`Intel Resource & Design Center <https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/design/resource-design-center.html>`_.
+Once approval has been granted, the user needs to search for
+*Snow3G F8 F9 3GPP cryptographic algorithms Software Library* to download the
+library or directly through this `link <https://cdrdv2.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/575867>`_.
 After downloading the library, the user needs to unpack and compile it
 on their system before building DPDK::
 
    make snow3G
 
+**Note**: When encrypting with SNOW3G UEA2, by default the library
+encrypts blocks of 4 bytes, regardless the number of bytes to
+be encrypted provided (which leads to a possible buffer overflow).
+To avoid this situation, it is necessary not to pass
+3GPP_SAFE_BUFFERS as a compilation flag.
+For this, in the Makefile of the library, make sure that this flag
+is commented out.::

+  #EXTRA_CFLAGS  += -D_3GPP_SAFE_BUFFERS
