Re: smsc routing & throughput

I would appreciate not yelling. Bold and CAPS mean just that. We are just volunteers.

1) You can fiddle with the parameters in core access.log. %I is the smsc-id sent /message.
2) Run benchmarks on your kannel installation. If you run test_ppg and route it through fake smsc, you should be getting smt like 1000 msg/sec on an average PC (64bit Solaris, 2.9 Ghz Opteron processor (dual core AMD)).
Why this is not realized? A million reasons. Your line could be really bad, but not so bad as to the throughput you have (15 x400 = 6000 B/s or 60kbps). I imagine you are better than that. My guess would be that you should either change smsc or ask your smsc for some benchmarks. You have 3 lines, why not try a couple of those to different providers and go with the fastest?
3) Bysetting dlr-mask = 0.

Nikos

  Hi

  I want to use 3 smsc connection in my smskannel.conf.
  I have configured it as follow:

  # CORE

  group = core
  admin-port = 13000
  smsbox-port = 13001
  admin-password = xxxx
  #status-password = xxx
  #admin-deny-ip = ""
  #admin-allow-ip = ""
  #log-file = "/tmp/kannel.log"
  #log-level = 0
  box-deny-ip = "*.*.*.*"
  box-allow-ip = "127.0.0.1"
  #maximum-queue-length=20
  sms-incoming-queue-limit=-1
  sms-resend-retry=-1
  sms-resend-freq=1800
  #unified-prefix = "+358,00358,0;+,00"
  #access-log = "/tmp/access.log"
  #store-file = "kannel.store"
  #ssl-server-cert-file = "cert.pem"
  #ssl-server-key-file = "key.pem"
  #ssl-certkey-file = "mycertandprivkeyfile.pem"

  Now , 1. I want to check whether routing is correct through 3 SMSCs: ? How to check this?
            2.Kannel performing throughput as total 15sms/second including all 3 smsc . How to increase throughput ? SMPP account provider has given 30sms/second for EACH smsc.
           3.How to off delivery report on runtime if load increases ?

  PLEASE REPLY !!

  Thanks & Regards
