Specifying SMS destination port (feature request)

[Tergujeff Renne]

Hello,

My understanding is that gnokii currently does not support specifying the destination application port when sending SMS. This would be necessary to use gnokii to connect to MIDP PushRegistry. See also a previous question from last April, concerning the same matter. I know that for example SMSLib software allows this, but it only works with AT command set, not FBUS like gnokii. So the question is: would it be possible to implement this feature in gnokii?

As for how to go about implement it -- my C coding "skills" wouldn't probably be of help. Here's some background info, though: I've learned (but stand to be corrected) that FBUS protocol contains the SMS-SUBMIT field, which is described ETSI GSM 03.40 specification. SMS-SUBMIT, in turn, contains TP-User-Data (TP-UD), which has places for "Application Port Addressing", with both 8 and 16 bit addressing.

Best regards,
Renne Tergujeff

Hello!

I would like to ask how to use SMS ports with gnokii. I am running gnokii on server side, and want to communicate with MIDP Java  applications running on the phones (I need to specify a port number). So far I didn't find how to do it, perhaps with a special UDH?

Thanks,
Zoltan
