Hello list,
I started to use Kannel about two month and have since been able to set up SMSC connections to two different service providers using SMPP3.3/3.4 quite successfully. So I have to give my thanks to the developers of Kannel and its mailinglists. You've done a good job here.
Unfortunately I need to a third SMSC conncetion using EMI/UCP4.2 and that's what gives me some headache. I've already managed to establish the connection to the SMSC, but sending a text SMS isn't working yet. In cooperation with the service providers developer support I was able to find out that sending a text SMS (aka OT51 message) is correct but the issue is that no opening of a session (required to send successfuly) happens yet.
The developer support told me that I need to send an OT60 message to open a session before the OT51 message. My problem now is that I haven't been able to figure out how to represent this behaviour in a Kannel config.
The actual config for the SMSC connection is as follows (using Kannel 1.4.0 stable):
# SMSC CONNECTION group = smsc smsc-id = SMSCx smsc = emi host = 1.2.3.4 port = 1111 # receiving msg's will be cared for later #receive-port = # connection to smsc is accepted without username, so this one's left blank #smsc-username = "" smsc-password = "asdf"
The Userguide states that EMI/UCP 3.5 and 4.0 are supported. Is this information still accurate or is version 4.2 insofar downward compatible that it should work with the actual Kannel?
Many thx in advance and have good day, Christian.
