Hi Bryce

I had checked the 2 posts which you mentioned but the issue there was the Same IP address. I have 3 seperate IP address's/Hostname's connecting on seperate ports and seperate login details.

Am using two seperate IP addresss and 3 seperate Operator SMSC connections and connecting via SMPP. Now am using ROuting option to route few countries via one SMPP connection and few via other SMPP connections.

Now this works perfectly well with HTTP access. That is i call the HTTP string and send the message. But when I use SMPP all the messages are routed via the First SMPP operator connection which i have set in order. Routing is not working for SMPP in short and all the messages sent via SMPP are routed via only one SMPP connection and not the other one.

This are my SMPP details as in SMSGW FILE:

[SMPP - 202.144.54.142:3780]
SMPPVersion=v3.3
UserName=XXXX
Password=XXXX
Receive=No
ReceiveMMS=No
[SMSGW]
Modem1=SMPP - 202.144.54.142:3780
WebAuth=Yes
WebMenu=Yes
WebPort=8800
SMPPPort=5555
Modem2=SMPP - 80.69.27.150:2775
ReceiveSMS=No
ReceiveMMS=No
Modem3=SMPP - 202.175.124.188:8002
[SMPP - 80.69.27.150:2775]
SMPPVersion=v3.3
UserName=XXXX
Password=XXXX
Receive=No
ReceiveMMS=No
RoutePrefOnly=Yes
Route1=92*
[SMPP - 202.175.124.188:8002]
SMPPVersion=v3.3
UserName=XXXX
Password=XXXX
SystemType=_dev
Receive=No
ReceiveMMS=No
RoutePrefOnly=Yes
Route1=31*


What is happening that via HTTP URL the routing is happening propelry. But when i try connecting via SMPP all the messages are routed via Modem1=SMPP - 202.144.54.142:3780. Its not taking the routing into account if i connect via SMPP.


Kindly do help in this matter.

Thanks
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,

Try modifying the preferred routes on your connections to include the phone number with and without the plus symbol. E.g., the SMPP provider that has the "92*" preferred connection prefix should also have "+92*".

What is likely is that when we receive a message via SMPP, the TON (type of number) is set to 1 (international), so we add a "+" character to the phone number for routing purposes.

The addition of the "+" character affects the rules.

That's my best guess ...

If that is not the case, can you post some examples from your SMSOUT-yyyymmdd.LOG file where messages were routed differently than expected?
