Ok, Very simple. I have an SMPP connection to an Operator (GSM).
I want to receive messages from it and I also want to be able to send messages to it. >From the document/manual I read, I understand if messages are sent from the http://host:sms-port/cgi-bin/sendsms will direct the message to the SMSBox associated with the username used in sending the message and the Box will forward the message to either the specified SMSC in the request or the forced SMSC associated with the user. For this purpose, I created an SMSBox and I have a dedicated transmitter (only) SMPP link to my provider. Note: I linked (in the routing group) this SMSC with this SMSBox and made this SMSC the forced SMSC for a username I created (called telconame). However, I have another SMPP link binded in a transceiver mode. I want the message received on this link (SMSC) to be routed to another SMSC (HTTP type) which - uses the field send-url to - send message to desire application. However, I need to test that messages sent to this SMSC are routed to the apt SMSC (the HTTP type SMSC) and hence apt application. I created another SMSBox and routed it to the receiver SMSC; to accept incoming messages. I tested this, it worked. (But do I need this second SMSBox; I don't think so.). I created another username (called appname) and link this Receiver (SMPP) SMSC with it. It actually worked, however, I noticed that when I send a message with the the sms-user appname it goes to the desired HTTP SMSC but I noticed that at times, it sends the message to the telco operator, even though it is suppose to re-route to the HTTP SMSC. I read it is possible to run multiple SMSBox; is this on different smsbox port or the same, how is the config for this done? I also understand sendsms-user are within the scope of SMSBoxes, which means each SMSBox can have its sendsms-user. How can this be achieved. The doc you referred me to, only explained BearerBox and WapBox Architecture. I understand how Bearerbox handles SMSCs (Bearerbox holds al SMSC links and receives messages), however, the role of SMSboxes are still vague. What happens to messages that is not linked with an SMSBox? Are SMSBoxes actually associated with or contains sendsms-users and sms-services? Cheers.
