Good day.

I would like to route SMS (messages) sent from a "USER" account to only use a specific SMPP connection.

Example...I only want USER-A to be able to send his messages to SMPP connection B.
I have SMPP-A, SMPP-B and SMPP-C. I only wand the "USER" to send all his messages to SMPP-B.

How can I have this done? Please help.

Hi,

Do you want only USER-A to use SMPP-B? (not USER-B, USER-C, etc.)

If so, add USER-A to the "Preferred SMSC Connection for" list SMPP-B, and this will have two effects:


Only users listed will be routed via this SMSC connection.

Users listed will not be routed via other SMSC connections.

This setting only works in recent (2014/2015 versions). For older versions, a "Forced Sender" address can be used for the SMS user account. If this sender address matches the "Default Sender Address" of SMPP-B, that SMSC connection will be used.

Thank you for your prompt reply.

However, what I want to accomplish is this;

Other users should be able to send SMS(messages) to SMPP-B...but I want USER-A to "only" use SMPP-B.

I hope I explained it clear to you.
Thanks

Forced sender match with SMPP-B is the only way (other than implementing your own accounting callbacks to specify routing).

Thank you.

Can you please explain "Forced sender match with SMPP-B".
Is this a setting I would need to put in the "USER" directory?

Sorry, I should have explained more.

In the "SMS Users", edit the account to have a "Forced Sender Address".

Any messages submitted by this user will have this sender address applied.

In the "SMSC" list, set this same sender address as the "Default Sender Address".
