RMS Quick Start Guide
SNPP
SNPP or Simple Network Paging Protocol is an alternative method to SMTP for
delivering text-based messages to alphanumeric pager and cellular phones. If
your wireless provider supports SNPP messaging, the RMS application suite can
send notifications messages to users using SNPP. SNPP is preferred over the
standard SMTP method of delivering text messages to wireless devices, as it is
more direct and efficient.
If you wish to use SNPP paging, check the Enable SNPP Paging option and
select a default SNPP provider from the provider list. If your SNPP provider is
not in the provider list, you can add additional providers using the Add button.
You can test these SNPP settings using the Test button. If you press the Test
button, a SNPP Pager Test dialog will appear. Enter the pager id for the mobile
device you wish to send the test message. You can optionally modify the text
message to send. When ready, press the Send Test Message button to send the
text message.
When you have completed testing, click Close.
After you have finished setting the desired SNPP options, click Next to continue.
