Thanks Nikos. Making sure that I understood you:
group = smsc smsc = smpp smsc-id = smsc1 ... preferred-smsc-id = smsc1 group = smsc smsc = smpp smsc-id = smsc2 ... preferred-smsc-id = smsc2 and http req with: &smsc=smsc1 will send messages via smsc1. smc2 will _ONLY_ be used if smsc1 is down. Kindly confirm. Cheers 2010/6/23 Nikos Balkanas <nbalka...@gmail.com> > Hi, > > Using allowed-smsc-id = smsc1, will build up queue if smsc1 is down.
