Chapter 5. Setting up a SMS Gateway

Variable

Value

Description

assume-plain-text

bool

If client does not set

Content-Type for reply, it is
normally
application/octet-stream which is
then handled as data in kannel.
This can be forced to be
plain/text to allow backward
compatibility, when data was not
expected.

concatenation

bool

Long messages can be sent as

independent SMS messages with

concatenation = false

or

as concatenated messages with

concatenation = true

.

Concatenated messages are
reassembled into one long
message by the receiving device.

split-chars

string

Allowed characters to split the

message into several messages.
So, with "#!" the message is split
from last ’#’ or ’!’, which is
included in the previous part.

split-suffix

string

If the message is split into

several ones, this string is
appended to each message except
the last one.

omit-empty

bool

Normally, Kannel sends a

warning to the user if there was
an empty reply from the service
provider. If

omit-empty

is set to

’true’, Kannel will send nothing
at all in such a case.

header

string

If specified, this string is

automatically added to each
SMS sent with this service. If the
message is split, it is added to
each part.

footer

string

As header, but not inserted into

head but appended to end.

prefix

string

Stuff in answer that is cut away,

only things between prefix and
suffix is left. Not case sensitive.
Matches the first prefix and then
the first suffix. These are only
used for

url

type services, and

only if both are specified.
