Our SMSC provider has two SMPP bind addresses available for redundancy. Is it possible to setup two binds with the same routes so that the traffic load balances between the two? or if one fails routes to the alternate ? | |||

Hi Joel, If you define both servers the load balancing will happen automatically. Do note that depending on how your service provider routes delivery reports, there may be some message ID confusion as NowSMS does not know they are the same system. The lead article at http://blog.nowsms.com discusses how to address this. Regarding fail-over/backup, search on BackupForRoute (all one word), and you'll find info. | |||
