To be complete: There do exist Kannel SS7 smsc drivers. They are just not open source.

As Rene stated, smppbox is a SMPP server add-on component to the normal Kannel allowing you to act as vSMSC (vitual SMSC), leaveraging client SMSC connections as own SMPP server to customers. ie. as SMS aggregator. There is NO WAY to transmit a SMS without "bridging" from the IP world (internet) into the GSM (SS7 layer) world via a SMSC. What Kannel DOES support is connecting GSM modems to act as it's SMSC connections, so you can send SMS via a "connected mobile", and hence use the SIM card in the modem for sending.
