In order to begin testing Kannel PPG functionality, I've read through the Architecture and User's Guide documents and some test source code including test_ppg.c. One way to run test_ppg is to provide a PUSH_URL as well as optional CONTENT_FILE and PAP_FILE parameters. I found a sample PAP_FILE in Kannel/PPG/push_ctrl_doc. Trivial though this will sounds to many, I'm unclear regarding the definition and usage of the PUSH_URL and CONTENT_FILE parameters. Regarding CONTENT_FILE, what does the file contain? Is it the URL that the handset will access if the subscriber confirms that they want to view the PUSH content? I thought this was part of the <address ...> entry in the push control document. Regarding PUSH_URL, what is the format of the URL? Is this something of the form: "http://KANNEL_HOST_IP_ADDRESS:IP_PORT_OF_PPG";? In addition, for my initial kannel.conf file with PPG configuration information, I've stuck, for the most part, with the default configuration in the Kannel User's Guide. I'm sure to change many of these values once I begin sending PAP messages through the PPG. I'd appreciate suggestions anyone has regarding difficult experiences you've had with PPG-related configuration variables. For now, I have the following groups defined: * core * wapbox * smsbox * smsc * ppg * wap-push-user
Thank you for your help. Ira Rosen
