Other sms gateways like Microsoft SMS Sender, Gnokii, Gammu, gsmlib and xgsmlib,OpenSMPP API, GSMI/GSMD::Gnokii etc how kannel is different from these gateways. The userguide said that bearerbox is the interface towards the phone it pass the messages between phones and other boxes and smsbox handles SMS functionality. But my question is that if i'm using 2 real phone then why i need besrerbox and smsbox?

Which other sms gateways do you mean? Generally Kannel does almost all things that an sms gateway can do.Yes you can use gsm modem to receive and send sms using Kannel.Go through the user guide to find why bearerbox and smsbox must be launched first On Nov 4, 2011, at 1:30 PM, angel eyez wrote: Hi I'm new to kannel and want to understand it. Can u tell me how the kannel is differ from other sms gateways. my another question is that i can buy the gsm modem and use it for sending and receiving messages what special feature kannel can provide. Also why bearerbox and smsbox is started before sending any message. Why both services are used. Any assistance will be really appreciated. Regards angel Willy MulartoF300HD+MR18DE (NLC1725)
