Hi Guys, Having worked in the mobile industry, the SMSC isn't the only component here that is required. First off, you'll need that your DID provider be able to carry the unique signaling nature of SMS via your IP connection.
Now, let us imagine that you're using an MVNO, you'll need two distinct connections to the MVNO, one for VoIP and one for SMS. In addition, at the carrier level, most carrier will prefer the SMPP protocol - not HTTP or another XML based variant. The reason is that SMPP is a standard support by almost any mobile switch manufacturer. At that point, you'll need to use something like Kannel in order to facilitate that specific inter-connect. Now, let us say that we want to traverse an SMS from the IP world, connected to Asterisk, to the mobile world. Apart from an SMS MT provider, we'll need a proper connection. If we want to do this directly from Asterisk, we'll either need a direct connection to the SMSC and the SMS MT provider level (I doubt that will happen), or some form of an external interface means - again, defeats the purpose I believe. Integrating SMPP into Asterisk is interesting, but I'm not sure that it is a worthwhile task for the project to take in any case.
