[OpenSIPS-Users] SMS using opensips

[DanB]

Hi Jayesh,

Another recipe would be using external application server for
gateway-ing between SIP and other protocols SMS providers are using
(eg: HTTP or SMPP) and have opensips as authenticator, registration
and load balancer. Offline messages can be handled also on OpenSIPS
side using msilo module.
I personally have used Twisted and Divmod/Sine. In this way you get
two way SMS without involving any database to keep up with speed and
be able to failover between providers.
