Sendind message with message_payload

[Artem Chekulaev]

How to send long messages as single using message_payload? I tried to
set it in meta-data but it has no effect. I can see that in log but
not in tcpdump.

Re: Multiple concurrent client connections

[Mike Nwaogu]

Thanks alot Rene,
I guess the solution would then be for the client to increase throughput and 
push out as many as are possible in a minute. Is this assumption correct?

I’m afraid that with the current sources it is not possible to bind more than 
once to the same opensmppbox.
However, you can try multiple opensmppbox instances, each listening on a 
different port (not tested).

Yes Rene,
I want each clients to be able to have 4 or 5 simultaneous connections using 
the same account details.
Is this possible, and how, if yes?

Do you mean concurrent connections of the same user?
That is “by design”…

I'm looking to increase the allowable number of concurrent smpp client 
connections.
I run opensmppbox and currently, only two simultaneous connection stay 
connected after the initial verification process. The others may connect but 
I'm only able to use two at the same time as the other(s) keep breaking the 
connection ever so often.

Suggestions, will help.

opensmppbox issue

kannel's load balancing when using multiple concurrent connections to the same SMSC with the same smsc_id and login

[spameden]

I'm using latest kannel from SVN with sqlbox in scheme:
Box connections: smsbox:sqlbox, IP 127.0.0.1 (0 queued), (on-line 0d 0h 13m
12s)

I'm using multiple connections to the same SMSC with the same login (my
smsc allows up to 4 concurrent connections under the same login).

I have configured 2 connections for sending SMS and 2 connections for
receiving DLRs.

I noticed from kannel's status kannel isn't load balancing properly between
them:

  mysmsc[smsc]SMPP:smpp-provider.com:2775/0:login:NULL (online
623s, rcvd: sms 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00) / dlr 2559 (4.29,4.21,4.11), sent: sms
2559 (4.29,4.21,4.11) / dlr 0
   (0.00,0.00,0.00), failed 0, queued 0 msgs)
   mysmsc[smsc]SMPP:smpp-provider.com:2775/0:login:NULL (online
623s, rcvd: sms 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00) / dlr 234 (0.40,0.38,0.38), sent: sms
234 (0.40,0.38,0.38) / dlr 0
   (0.00,0.00,0.00), failed 0, queued 0 msgs)

dlr's are here because I'm using dlr_mask=31 to get also state=8.

You can clearly see that number of sent sms are not the same and differs in
about 10 times or more.

I can't use different smsc_id's because in this case messages won't be
matched against dlr table.

I can post relevant bits from configuration as well if needed..

opensmppbox issue:

[Ravindra Gupta // Viva]

Hello everyone,

I have installed opensmppbox on a centOS server and have configured it with
a client, but the client is not able to connect. When the client tries to
connect it gives  SMSC rejected login to transmit, code 0x000d (Bind
Failed). Couldn't connect to SMS center (retrying in 10 seconds).


On the server side, it gives this error, Invalid SMPP PDU received.

Re: kannel's load balancing when using multiple concurrent connections to the same SMSC with the same smsc_id and login

[Kyriacos/Netsmart]

Hi,

I believe the "load balance" happens only in the sence that if one bind 
is busy sending an SMS and a new request comes, instead of queuing it, 
it goes to the second bind of the same name, rather than doing 
"round-robin" load balancing which seems to be what most people 
expect/assume. If your send rate is fairly low, then most messages will 
leave via the 1st bind.

Kyriacos Sakkas

[Πετσούκα Τάνια]

  
  
That's true.
You could use two different smsc groups and get the control of which
to use passing smsc_id parameter to your messages.

restarting kannel gives panic

[spameden]

Hello, list.

This bug was already discussed here:

http://www.kannel.org/pipermail/users/2010-August/012229.html

But still no solution!

I have smsbox->sqlbox->bearerbox scheme and _VERY_OFTEN_ if i restart
kannel when it has active queue bearerbox fails to restart.

Please suggest.

Re: kannel's load balancing when using multiple concurrent connections to the same SMSC with the same smsc_id and login

[spameden]

nvm, I think I solved this, the issue was in MySQL overhead I think.

Tuned a lot MySQL InnoDB storage + used INSERT DELAYED for sent_sms table
(this table is in MyISAM for now)

And btw, now bearerbox spreads load better:


smsc[smsc]SMPP:smpphost.com:2775/2775:smpplogin:NULL (online 2554s, rcvd:
sms 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00) / dlr 2497 (0.00,0.01,0.98), sent: sms 553
(0.00,0.00,0.22) / dlr 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00), failed 0
, queued 0 msgs)

(0.00,0.00,0.08) / dlr 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00), failed 0
, queued 0 msgs)
smsc[smsc]SMPP:smpphost.com:2775/2775:smpplogin:NULL (online 2554s, rcvd:
sms 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00) / dlr 2201 (0.00,0.01,0.86), sent: sms 213
(0.00,0.00,0.08) / dlr 0 (0.00,0.00,0.00), failed 0
, queued 0 msgs)

I've tested also speed of sending sms via smsbox without DLR its so
awesome. I guess I need a new server with better hardware to get speeds
like this on MySQL storage.
