How do I set up Kannel to use UCP-EMI?

To set up the Kannel gateway (http://www.kannel.org) to use the UCP-EMI service you should add the appropriate connection information into the configuration file (check the Kannel documentation for more information). A sample configuration file might look like:

Example

smsc = emi
host = sms1.cardboardfish.com
port = 9002
smsc-username = USERNAME
smsc-password = PASSWORD
keepalive = 30
flow-control = 0
window = 10

The important fields are:

• host- this should be set to sms1.cardboardfish.com
• port- this should be set to either 9002 for ISO-8859-1 encoding or 8002 for GSM encoding
• smsc-username- set this to your assigned username
• smsc-password- set this to your assigned password

Please note that setting flow-control to 0 and window to 10 will give you increased throughput by enabling up to 10 pending operations.
