Based on what I've read in the Kannel User's Guide and Architecture documents, I have a question dealing with Kannel connectivity with WAP phones. For example, say Kannel Software is running on a host named KANNELHOST while the bearerbox listener for WAP messages is configured to listen for WAP messages on a port named WAPPORT.Based on what I've read so far, I understand that WAP-based phones must send WAP messages directly to WAPPORT on KANNELHOST with all the appropriate protocol fields for the WAP message. This will connect the WAP phone with the bearerbox on KANNELhost. My question/concern is: Will the bearerbox/wapbox accept WAP PULL requests not initiated from a WAP phone? More specifically, what problems can I expect if I have another host in my network forwarding WAP messages from WAP-based phones to the bearerbox/wapbox. In this case, responses to the WAP messages would also be returned to the WAP phone via the same host (that forwarded the messages). Since the scenario described above is for a PULL scenario, what additional complications (if any) could I expect in a PUSH scenario if a forwarding host were used between the bearerbox/wapbox and the WAP phone?
Thank you for your help. Ira Rosen
