Right, sorry I was not clear. What I mean by protocol was just the body content format.I want the http IN to be able to take the same message data, and send it to 2 differnet http OUT with different format, based on a parameter in the request from the server.
Basically, my goal is to be able to send a request from my server like http://smsbox.host.name:port/cgi-bin/sendsms?username=foo&password=bar&SOMEID=id1&to=0123456&text=Hello+world then have Kannel inernaly do: if (SOMEID == id1) { POST <smscA> ... <foo>text</foo> } else if (SOMEID == id2) { POST <smscB> ... <bar>text</bar> } So foo, and bar are the 2 protocols I was speaking of earlier. I just realized also that I can survive with no body in the request from my server, (as above) just not in sending to the smsc. So actually I guess I do need the smsbox afterall. I think my first solution was not good. I should configure a sendSms for my server, as in the example above and then configure a sms-service with a post-url to post this data to smsc (smsA, smsB in exmaple)I just might need to do some special implementations for formatting the posted data. ________________________________ From: Andreas Fink <af...@list.fink.org> To: Brian McCavour <bmccav...@yahoo.com> Cc: "devel@kannel.org" <devel@kannel.org> Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 11:28:36 AM Subject: Re: Making a http to http MT kannel protocol ID's can be of different kind. There is a PID field in the SMS PDU which you can set by &pid=... if I'm not mistaken. But there are also port numbers of WAP which can be considered Port ID's. They are in a UDH header. Both are not part of the content by itself and the SMSC you submit it to have to support it. UDH headers are widely supported. Setting the PID might not..
