Hi,
I think if we use SS7 for sms, We need to connect to MSC through a
E1/SIGTRAN.so, I dont think any driver for smsc is needed, instead we need a
module which can connect with MSC through E1/SIGTRAN using GSM-MAP.

  Hi,

  SS7 protocol is very complex and difficult to write drivers for. It will
be quite a challenge to implement it in kannel as opensource. I am not sure
it justifies the effort.

    Yes there is a major advantage to control of the link and obviously
cost, but then retries, HLR lookups etc will need to be in the SMSC driver
which is outside the scope of what Kannel is designed to do (IMHO) so this
would need to be thought about very carefully if done.

    If you do write an open source SMSC driver for SS7 I'm sure there will
be many very happy people :)

    Thanks,

      Hi,
      If we use sms for push over ss7 E1 link.i.e directly connected to MSC,
      instead of SMSC(SMPP),Does we will get an advantage?
      if yes can we devlop kannel to support the above?

      Waiting for Any suggestion.

      Thanks & Regards
