i'm new to the topic SMS on linux.
My company needs to develope an application for their own use.
We need to handle incoming SMS, the infrastructure to receive those SMS
will be provided by our Mobilephone-Provider in their datacenter.
Our Mobilephone-Provider is able to deliver these Shortmessages (SMS) via
public Internet (TCP/IP)
with a protocol he's calling UCP/EMI
("The interface is based on the ERMES UCP (Universal Computer Protocol) with
some SMSC-specific extensions")
to us.
In the same protocol-specification we got from theme, the protocol as also
called EMI, which is the communication layer between the SMSC ? and our (to
be developed) application in our datacenter.
So my question is (before i go in detail in the documentation) is kannel able
to receive SMS from an SMSC via UCP/EMI and to e.g. write them into a
filesystem/database or whatever.
We need would need a gateway for the communication part with the provider
which could be adapted in our application.
I would be happy if someone who's more familiar with this topic is able to
give me an advice to find a possible solution for this (under linux) .
If kannel could provide a solution for this problem, i would also be glad to
get some information about commercial support for this project.
We are located in Düsseldorf/NRW Germany.
Hi Oliver,
in short: yes!... That's what is Kannel doing as SMS gateway. It abstracts
various (see user's guide) SMSC protocols on the client side towards HTTP on the
server side that is used for the backend application communication.
So your application can send SMS (MT) via HTTP to Kannel and Kannel takes care
about the EMI/UCP protocol towards Vodafone D2 or/and T-Mobile ;) ... same way
for inmount (MO) messages.
In case you need commercial support, I'm located near-by ;)
Regards,
Stipe
