Hi,

The TON (Type of number) and NPI (numbering plan indicator) define together how a sender or receiver address is formated. The source-addr defines how the sender is formated, the dest-addr how the receiver number (->MSISDN) is formated (e.g. international: 00491721234567 national: 01721234567 alphanumeric: FUBAR)

SMPP allows you to set during the bind a address range. This can be used by a SMSC for routing purpose. For example: you have rented a address range from a MNO, say 017212345* and you want that one half of the traffic goes to one of your client, the other half to another client, then you set addressrange in regex: 017212345[0-4][0-9]* and 017212345[5-9][0-9]* With the bind-addr TON and NPI you define how this addressrange is formated.

See 3GPP Specification 03.40 Chapter 9.1 for a list of which value TON and NPI can be set to.
