Notes on using the SMSC Simulator Technical Details service
- SMPP (Short Message Peer-to-Peer) protocol must be used to connect to the simulator.
- Use SMPP v3.3, v3.4 or v5 and specify the version in the bind request.
- Bind using one or more transmitter (TX), receiver (RX) or transceiver (TRX) binds.
- Use transceiver (TRX) or receiver (RX) binds to receive delivery receipts.
- If a delivery receipt has been requested for a message, a receipt will be returned to your application in <1 second after the submit_sm_resp. If there is no existing TRX or RX bind, then the receipt may be discarded.
- Mobile numbers (MSISDNs) should be in international format.
- TLS 1.1 and up are supported for SMPP sessions. SSL and TLS 1.0 are not supported for connections.
- DeliverSM window size = 25 (default)
