The SMPP protocol can be used to connect you directly to our SMSC Center. By this way you can send and receive SMS messages over the Internet or over a private TCP/IP network in large volumes / traffic. Our SMSC Center supports the SMPP ( Short Message Peer to Peer ) Protocol, version 3.3 or 3.4. We also offer SSL encryption for SMPP connections.
You can send or receive sms in Transreceiver ( TX ) or Transmitter ( TR ) or Receiver ( RC ) mode of binds as per your requirement, we support both Synchronous & Asynchronous mode to send sms over SMPP.
Parameters Properties & description:
| Property | Description |
| SMPP Version | Specifies the version of the SMPP protocol to use. The gateway supports "v3.3 and "v3.4. |
| Server Host Name | Specifies the TCP/IP address or host name of the SMPP server. |
| Port | Specifies the TCP/IP port on the SMPP server to which the gateway should connect |
| Use SSL/TLS | Should only be checked if the service provider specifically indicates that they support SSL or TLS encryption for the SMPP connection |
| User Name | Specifies the user name (sometimes called System ID) for the gateway to use when connecting to the SMPP server |
| Password | Specifies the password for the gateway to use when connecting to the SMPP server. |
| System Type | Is an optional login parameter that should be set only if required by the SMPP server. The SMPP system administrator will provide this value, which when required, is usually a short text string. |
| Sender Address | Specifies the default sender address (phone number) to apply to outbound SMS messages. The SMPP server may override this setting. |
| Keep-alive Interval | This setting specifies a value, in number of seconds, between which you can automatically send enquire link commands to the SMSCCenter. Most SMSC require that connected clients periodically send an enquire_link command to verify that they are still connected and functioning correctly. If this parameter is not specified, a default of 58 seconds is used. A value of 0 seconds can be used to disable Smsc Center from sending any enquire_link commands. |
| Enable SMPP Async Mode | Enabling this setting allows messages to be sent more rapidly over an SMPP connection. While async modes is enabled then it does not need to wait for an acknowledgment for the previous message before submitting the next message till up to the defined Window Size number of messages without receiving an acknowledgment. We supported async mode, this can provide a great increase in potential throughput, and is generally required for any single SMPP connection to exceed average 3 messages per second. |
| TON / NPI | One of the most confusing issues involved in setting up an SMSC connection is when your SMS service provider requires specific TON (type of number) and NPI (numbering plan identification) values.
In the majority of cases, you can ignore any requirements that your provider has for these settings, because SMSC Center define and set intelligent default values for users. |
| SYNC/ASYNC |
Note: Use GSM 7 bit packed encoding, Encode @ sign as iso 8859-1 character, Convert incoming GSM 7 to iso 8859-1.
