Re: Interface to bearerbox

Hello Alvaro,

Indeed the same would suffice for kannel, but when the it comes to usage with smppbox, I personally don't think it is enough for that is our experience.

Hi

Kannel is a backend or a gateway for sending/receiving messages.
Kannel is designed to handle huge amount of SMS traffic transparently
to/from any external application, so you don´t need to handle all kind
of protocol issues.

All you said is usually done through an external application of your
own, with whom you can do all filtering/billing/features you
need/want/desire.

You do not need to patch / modify kannel for do what you want. Just
with your own frontend will suffice.

Regards

Alvaro
