Dear Sir,
Thank you so much for the suppot you are giving to us, our operator here required to change the connectivity from submit_sm to Data_sm. Following are the requirement needed,
a. CP need to use data_sm instead of submit_sm
b. Segmentation needs to be OFF either in SAR or UDH. The long content need to be set in single data_sm instead of multiple data_sm to messaging gateway.
c. The content of the message will be in msg payload parameter instead.
d. The Short SMS also can be sent in data_sm format instead of submit_sm.

Thank you

Hi Jimmy,

Are you sure that data_sm is required?

You can configure NowSMS to put the long content into a single submit_sm using message_payload with the following setting:

In the properties for the SMPP connection, under "Advanced Settings", check "Use WDP Adaptation".

(Also, make sure "Use TLV parameters..." is NOT checked.)

With this setting, NowSMS will send all long messages as one message using message_payload.

However, submit_sm is used (unless it is a WAP push or port addressed message, in which case data_sm is used).

Try this setting.

If the provider requires data_sm, we should be able to make an update to add a configuration setting to allow this. We just have not seen this required before, as most providers who use message_payload still use submit_sm.

Short answer... NowSMS still segments the message, as shown by multiple SAR message IDs, however when an SMPP connection uses these settings, the message is reassembled and submitted as a single message using message_payload. The fact that the message has been reassembled is not obvious from the log files (except that the date/time stamp for transmission of all segments is the same).
