Chapter 5. Setting up a SMS Gateway

Variable

Value

Description

wait-ack-expire

number

Defines what kind of action

should be taken if the the ack of
a message expires. The options
for this value are: 0x00 -
disconnect/reconnect, (default)
0x01 - as is now, requeue, but
this could potentially result in the
msg arriving twice 0x02 - just
carry on waiting (given that the
wait-ack should never expire this
is the mst accurate)

flow-control

number

This SMSC can support two

types of flow control. The first
type of flow control is a

stop-and-wait

protocol, when

this parameter equals to ’1’.
During the handling of
commands, no other commands
shall be sent before the a
response is received. Any
command that is sent before the
reception of the response will be
discarded. The second type of
flow control is

windowing

,

when this parameter is unset or
equals ’0’. In this case a
maximum of n commands can be
sent before a response is
received.

window

number (messages)

When using

flow-control=0

,

emi works in windowed flow
control mode. This variable
defines the size of the window
used to send messages. (optional,
defaults to the maximum - 100)

throughput

number (messages/sec)

If SMSC requires that kannel

limits the number of messages
per second, use this variable.
(optional)

retry

boolean

Assuming that kannel is well

configured and we had one
sucessful connection, if retry is
true, kannel will always retry the
connection even if some related
error ocur.
