Hi, To answer your Q1 and Q4:as far as I know, the priority parameter interact directly with the kannel queue, that means a message with a higher priority is sent quicker than previous one. I'm using it to pass debug and emergency sms in case of failure of one server.
To determine if 0 is the highest or the lowest, you have to test or take a look in the source code ;-) BR -----Original Message----- From: Alejandro Guerrieri [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: jeudi 13 septembre 2007 09:45 To: users@kannel.org Subject: Kannel queue management Hi, I'm facing some problems with carrier's connections due to limited throughput on their part. It's not really a kannel problem, the SMSC connection has a lower throughput, so at peak hours we experience message queueing. The problem is, we need some messages to get sent as soon as posible, but when we have thousands of messages queued for delivery there's a significant delay (it may be hours from the time of queueing). So my question is: is there any way to handle individual message's priority at sending time? My goal is to be able to enqueue some messages with "critical" priority and they should be sent asap. I've checked the user guide and found the "priority" parameter: priority number Optional. Sets the Priority value (range 0-3 is allowed). This leads to some questions: 1. Do this parameter affect the queuing of outgoing messages inside kannel as I expect it to be, or it's just a parameter being passed as part of the PDU? 2. Which priority gets set by default if the paremeter is missing? 3. Which one is the highest (zero I guess?) 4. Does it work for SMPP and HTTP connections as well? Thank you in advance, Alejandro. -- Alejandro Guerrieri Magicom http://www.magicom-bcn.net/ LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/aguerrieri _____ Antivirus avast! <http://www.avast.com> : message Sortant sain.
