Since the smsc_id in the MO is set by the driver, and this only applies to custom/proprietery or future drivers, I think that setting the smsc_id of the MO to something that represents the mcc/mnc will suffice (maybe a concatenation of their values), and is a good solution. Yes Oded, that was

In this case I suggest you're backend system should know the prefix of the MO message, hence your backend system has to figure out from which network the request is coming by parsing the prefix number value. Yes Stipe, but this is mainly guessing, because of mobile number portability. Here in

Aquestion for all developers, What do you think about having kannel pass mnc and mcc information to applications? Sometimes applications need to know the operator for the incoming MO (a logo download applicationbeing the typical example), and kannel is the closer elementto the operator

Angel, what you want to do is to allow to forward mcc and mnc values that have to be entered by the system admin by hand to each smsc group, which means Kannel is only storing and forwarding still statical information. This blows only unnecessary the code of Kannel up. You can distunguish in

Not true in multi-operator links. if your multi-operator incoming link tells you the original SMSC the message comes from (passing the %i) then youre back in business. If you implement mnc and mcc and the multi-operator link doesnt tell you this, you're back to square one, hence the original
