Hi I want use as a SMSC as a Openwave server.

I set the value "Custom" in the Server Type field.

Are you talking about an OpenWave push proxy gateway? I don't believe they have an SMSC product, and if they did I would use SMPP instead of HTTP.

If you need to use HTTP, do you have any documentation onthe system that you want to connect with?

Right. I do not believe that product is an SMSC.

It is a WAP Gateway that also has an optional WAP Push Proxy Gateway (can send WAP push messages) capabilities.

To the best of my knowledge, it is not a general purpose SMSC.

To configure NowSMS to send WAP push messages (including MMS) via an external push proxy gateway, the PAP (push access protocol) interface is used.

There is some more discussion of this in the following thread:

http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/23979.html

You would need to know the what URL/port to use for interfacing via PAP, and you would need to know about how you authenticate to that interface.

I would stress that this is a very unusual configuration. NowSMS is also a push proxy gateway, so for most configurations there is not an advantage of having NowSMS send push messages via another push proxy gateway unless you are using a configuration where SMS is not the WAP push bearer.
