SIP2SIM and SMS
SMS is supported.
Overview
Sending SMS from the handset can work in these ways:
- Without any configuration, out going SMS from the handset/SIM will have the originator as: sip2sim.
- With configuration, we can post the data to a URL of yours - you can then process this and relay it on how you like
- With configuration and a Number from AAISP, we can handle the SMS for you.
SMS with an AAISP Number
If you have a VoIP number from AAISP that supports SMS (see VoIP - SMS for a list) then SMSs can be sent to and from the SIM. This will need 2 settings on the Control Pages to be set:
- Set the 'MO SMS URL' field on the Control Page for the SIM to be the VoIP number (+44 format)
- Set the 'SMS Inbound' field on the Control Page for the VoIP number to be the ICCID
