Re: Possible bug with smsc-stop

Hi Andreas,

The only problem with having all the smsc-id's different is when i bind to
one provider with one receiver and 3 transmitters - this means that delivery
reports get lost as the receiver has a different smsc-id to the one that
sent it...Talking to a few of the support people at some of our providers
they suggested doing the 1 receiver / 3 transmitter way to improve speed -
though they said doing 3 receivers / 3 transmitters would be pushing it in
terms of number of connections..

Thanks for the response though - will try and work out an alternate way!

Bill.

yes


you should give every smsc different ID's. You most probably will have
troubles with delivery reports this way anyway.
then on every smsc config you define

allowed-smsc: mysmscname, genericsmscname

this means when you send with smsc=mysmscname it will go to that
specific link while when you send with smsc=genericsmscname it will go
to any link.
if you omit it, it wont go anywhere.
