Dear sir,
 
Thank you very much!
 
According to what you said, kannel doesn't implement the UDH header now. Do you have a plan?
 
and would you pls tell me which optional parameters in submit_sm are UDH header? and which protocol depicts the UDH?
 
Best Regards,

How to explain the optional parameters(source_port, destination port) in submit_sm of  SMPP. SMPPv3.4 page62 says  "This parameter should be present for WAP applications." But kannel doesn't implement these optional parameters.
 

esm_class in bearerbox is given the value "0x43". 
 
                        x x x x x x 1 1 Store and Forward mode
                        x x 0 0 0 0 x x Default message Type (i.e. normal message)
                        0 1 x x x x x x UDHI Indicator (only relevant for MT short messages)

Right. UDH indicator must be set to tell the handset that there is a user data header present.
the user data header is prepended to the payload.

 This value doesn't indicate this short message is WAP push .


It does not. SMSC's are there to transport SMS, not wap data. an SMSC is not a wap gateway of any sort.
So it doesn't have to know anything about wap push but still can transport the WAP push PDU.
Check out the GSM specs for SMS-PDU's in the GSM networks. There is nothing in there about WAP. WAP was invented far after SMS so SMSC's don't have to know if this is a wap push. Handsets do. Thats why there is a UDH header indicating WAP ports.
