I didn't get you question/doubt in here clearly. Can you please
re-fraze it.

Kannel is considered as SMS gateway for entities that are "not
directly" GSM operators. Which means Kannel can be "bound" to several
(actually a lot of ;) SMSCs and hence act as a "gateway" to the
destination networks.

In terms of a GSM operator itself, they do usually intercarrier
routing via SS7 (which is a lower network layer). But Kannel *may* be
used as intercarrier routing facility (ie. using SMPP as protocol) on
the transport layer.

SMS Gateway Clarifications

2004-01-09 Thread SPECOM



Dear Sir,
 
To implement this SMS Gateway for GSM Networks , should we pay special 
charges to the
Service provider and whether the Kannel Gateway has to be implemented in 
the side of 
Service provider or in our own inhouse setup. Please clarify the above 
doubts to enable
us to proceed further. 
 
Thanks in advance
Regards
Srinivasa Raghavan V
