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.
