To receive MO's, Kannel listens on an HTTP port for requests, like a
regular web server. Each http-smsc implements a slightly different
interface (some accept http params, other xml documents, etc), but the
underlying principle remains the same and is implemented on the <your
smsc here>_receive_sms function in smsc_http.c.

Hi,
Besides, only MTs are pushed through kannel's HTTP interface. MO's
are not. Hervi clearly talks about MOs. kannel also offers all these
nifty sms-services, which would have to be built from scratch.
An interesting question is how do you receive SMS over HTTP. Do you
poll the SMSc HTTP every 5" to see if there are any new SMS or DLRs?

Subject: Re: Claro http communication
Milan,
There are already several HTTP SMSC specific implementations on
Kannel, the ones that Hervι mentioned are some of them.
Of course you can do it directly without Kannel, but it's a good
approach to do it via Kannel, so that you always use it as your
gateway and not one method for some carriers and another one for
others, It's also nice to do it via Kannel cause it already implements
stuff like it's internal queue, etc

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If we write a patch for kannel for operator-specific HTML
communication
(just like for Clickatell, Brunet, 3united.com...), is there any
chance
that it may be included in Kannel CVS?
You have to communicate with kannel over HTTP. Kannel have to
communicate with provider over HTTP. Why you could not communicate
with
provider over HTTP without kannel.
What should be role of the kannel in your case?
I don't like to say that you do not have good reason for that. I'm
just
curious.
Do you have some special hints / advices on how to proceed?
It won't be too hard for us to write this code considering the
existing
operator-specific code, but it costs nothing to ask for some advice
before starting to work on it ;)
