The Kannel SMPP v3.4 server (smppbox) is one of the most flexible SMPP servers
available, with a wide deployment ratio, and provides a full vSMSC solution as a
commercial add-on component to the known Kannel architecture.

The flow chain looks like this:

  upstream SMSC <-SMPP/UCP/HTTP/..-> bearerbox <-> smppbox <-SMPP-> SMPP client

So smppbox attaches to bearerbox for the upstream MT, MO and DLR traffic. All
message types are supported and DLR msg ID handling is transparently mapped.

The main features are:

- supports all message directions, SMS-MT, SMS-MO, DLRs (transparently, with own
Msg IDs) using all SMPP PDUs
- supports even query_sm, replace_sm and delete_sm PDUs
- session timeout handling like any major vendor SMSC
- billing/account can be done via postpaid CDR records or prepaid via credit
deduction inside mysql, oracle or sqlite3 database
- alternatively routing and/or accounting can be performed outside of smppbox
via HTTP callbacks
- Kannel style config file and status page, fit's generically into Kannel
instance, also for monitoring purposes
- remote authentication and routing/logging/billing support, to minimize the
config file change needs in production
- no incense based throughput limitation, you can run as many SMS/sec. you want
- no time limitation in license usage
- a modularized plugin API that allows you to call further logic while SMPP PDUs
are processed, i.e. a SPAM plugin that denies specific MTs depending on matched
regular expression (regex) patterns of PDU elements, or a "extra HTTP remote"
logging plugin.
- the plugin API is public and you can compile your own smppbox plugin DSO
(dynamic shared object) files into the runtime core of smppbox to perform own
logic inside.

I hope this has resolved the questions about the Kannel SMPP v3.4 server
(smppbox). :)

Please feel free to contact me, in case there is any interest.
