Dear All,
We are facing problems while configuring Now sms with SMPP.
We have a series of port like 77123,77124,etc. We need to configure now sms for a 2 way sms, means
we need to receive sms and want to reply through the same port.

Eg:-
1) User1 sends sms message(Testing) to 77123
2) We need to receive on 77123
3) We need to reply through 77123 also.
4) User2 sends sms message(Hi) to 77124
5) We need to receive on 77124
6) We need to reply through 77124 also.

While we configured the now sms, it can only receive on one port and can send through only one port at a time,
Please tell me how we can configure now sms for sending and receiving sms on different ports and
How we can use http for sending sms through different ports.

NowSMS will pass the original recipient address to a 2-way command as the @@RECIP@@ parameter.

So if you submit a message from your 2-way script where you initiate another connection back to the NowSMS server, you need to configure your 2-way command so that the @@RECIP@@ parameter is included in the command, and then your script needs to pass this value back as the "sender".

(If you don't use the redirect technique for replying, then NowSMS automatically sets the original recipient as the sender when processing a reply to a 2-way command.)

To have the message go out through a particular link, you need to have that address configured as the "Default Sender Address" for the link.

If you are confused about routing in general, refer to the following:
