Hi, forced-smsc on the sms-service group doesn't seem to work all the time; I have noticed that sometimes a message will get routed to an smsc that wasn't specified using forced-smsc ... and I can only attribute it to forced-smsc not working all the time.
I combatted this problem by using group = smsc smsc = at smsc-id = phone2 preferred-smsc-id = "phone1;phone2" so that the message is routed to phone2 regardless. If I put only preferred-smsc-id = "phone2" then occasionally the message gets routed to phone1. I am guessing that two things can be happening, either the forced-smsc parameter is unreliable for whatever reason, or kannel's internal routing mechanisms ignore preferences based on some heuristics like load? Is this known behaviour? cheers, ravi
