Hi kk, No, there is not. If you use the default TON & NPI settings in NowSMS (instead of configuring them explicitly), then NowSMS will adapt the TON & NPI based upon the source and destination addresses on a per message basis. That default behaviour is described here: http://blog.nowsms.com/2009/01/ton-and-npi-settings-for-smpp-and.html Perhaps we should look into adding some per message URL override parameters in the future. I would be curious to hear what the specific requirements for changing these values you have in your environment. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi kk, But can you give me an example? They may have a requirement for your using specific TON and NPI values ... but I'd like to see an example of what values they specifically want you to use ... in order to confirm that the standard NowSMS is not enough. If I can get a good example, then this can help me convince engineering that an update is needed to address this issue. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des, operator side require to using different TON and NPI values for local and international destination. kk | |||

Hi kk, That is normal. The default settings handle that. When submitting to NowSMS, if the phone number starts with "+", then NowSMS will set the TON and NPI for international (TON=1, NPI=1). If there is no "+", then NowSMS will set TON=0, NPI=1. (Technically, 0 is unknown, but this is what most operators want ... or at least will support for national numbers.) -- Des NowSMS Support |
