Hi,

Some clarifications

1-------------
* We have configured three SMSCs.
* For each of them, the "Support Any Outbound Message Traffic " is UnChecked.
* There is NO number configured under "Preferred SMSC Connection for" in any of the three SMSC.

We post a request over HTTP. In PreAuth, we authorize.

Will this message go ..If so, what is the logic used..?

2------------------------
* We have configured three SMSCs. NowSMS Route Name" are R1 , R2 and R3 respectively
* We post a message over HTTP with SMSRoute=R1
* In the PreAuth callback, can we override it as SMSRoute= , so that the SMSRoute is nullified and message is routed using the "Preferred SMSC Connection for" routing.

Appreciate your response.

Mathew

Hi,


1. No, the message will not be sent, because there is no eligible route.

The only way it will route is if the accounting response includes SMSCRoute=routename for a valid route.

(Note: Multiple connections can share a single rout name if desired.)

2. No. You can change the route, but you cannot reset to default.

Hi Des,

With reference to (1), Please find attached the logs (SMSDEBUG.LOG) and the SMSGW.INI.

Appreciate if you could clarify as to why the message was not dropped.

Hi Mathew,

Depending on your perspective that is either a feature or a bug that existed in many versions of NowSMS. It does not exist in current releases, so dating to the version on our download page would change this behavior.

The underlying bug is that NowSMS gets confused by routes with "Support Any Outbound Message Traffic " UNChecked, *and* an empty preferred list. Adding an item to the preferred list will work around the issue (e.g., an obviously incorrect number such as 000000000000000 could be added to the list).
