It's responsible for the connections to the SMSCs and routing messages from the smsbox 
to the an smsc driver and back again.

We tried running several smsboxes, and its mostly isn't worth the effort. a single 
smsbox and bearerbox setup on a single reasonably powerful Intel box is capable of 
routing at least several dozens messages per second with minimal performance impact 
(we had the Linux running with average load of something like 0.1 ~ 0.2 under full 
load). I heard rumors on the list that Kannel can do several hundreds of messages per 
second - not that I know any network provider that allows that sort of access to their 
systems.
