Hi there,
my Smsc gave me an UCP access but it requires me to connect FROM a defined
PORT and IP address TO a defined PORT and IP address.

if you ask me, ask your UCP providers to read a book about how TCP/IP works.
Forcing you to use a specific tcp port on originating side makes no sense. It limits you to a single session also. Outgoing sessions are alwways dynamically assigned. A session is unique by its IP address and port pairs. Thats why you can not have two sessions if you use the same IP's and same ports.


In my eyes they are just too lazy to configure their firewall properly.
