- Improvement (SMPP service provider connectivity): For incoming messages UDH is processed properly even if it is included in the message body instead of TLV fields. This makes it possible to support message reassembly for incoming multipart messages sent through ancient SMSC connections.
Updated: 2009.06.27.
- New feature (GSM modem connection, GPRS SMS support): Some GSM networks support GPRS SMS to provide better performance for SMS transfer. If your network support GPRS SMS, you can enable the "GPRS SMS Sending" feature on the "Message handling" tab of the GSM Modem configuration form.
- Improvement (GSM modem connection): Asynchronous status reports and incoming messages are handled better. Originally if an SMS message or a delivery report came in asynchronously through the CMT or CDS method, while another SMS was being sent, the send attempt failed. Thanks to this improvement, this will not happen in this and future releases.
- Improvement (Graphical user interface): Some unnecessary menu items were removed from the GUI of non-admin users, to simplify the user interface.
- Improvement (SMPP service provider connection): The servicetype field can be freely defined for each submitted message. (Hint: If you want to use this option in an SQL to SMS gateway configuration, add a servicetype column to the SELECT SQL template, and specify the value of the service type field as a hex string when you insert the message into the ozekimessageout database table.)
- Bug fix (SQL logging): Delivery reports with status codes reflecting unsuccessful delivery were not logged into the SQL logging database. This bug is fixed.
Updated: 2009.06.25.
- Improvement (SMPP service provider connection): The system type field can be updated on a per message basis. In previous version it could be updated on the configuration form. In the new version, if you wish to set the system type field for a message, that you send from SQL, simply add a column called systemtype to the SQL Select template in the Database user configuration form.
- Improvement (Message reassembly for incoming multipart messages): When multipart messages were received, originally the multipart message reference number was used to concatenate the message segments. In case high traffic environments, two messages could have came in with the same multipart message reference number. To improve message reassembly this version checks both, the sender telephone and the multipart message reference number number when the message parts are concatenated. This eliminates possible errors in message segment reassembly.
Updated: 2009.06.18.
- New feature (GSM modem, MMS sending): You can define a port number in the WAP gateway field if you use custom MMS settings
- Improvement (SMTP service provider connection): If you define a full e-mail address for sender or receiver or both, the system will not use the templates defined in the configuration form.
Updated: 2009.06.15.
- New feature (SMPP User): The SMSC default charset can be configured. You can seelct ISO-8859-1 and GSM 7 bit. This setting applies to messages submitted with DCS value of 0, and of course this does not effect the unicode and binary messages.
Updated: 2009.06.09.
- Bug fix (File user): pending lock files are removed
- Improvement (File user): For the csv and list file formats, the filename is preserverd for submitted messages. This means that the same file name will be used in the sent and not sent folder as the one that was used in the outbox during submission.
Updated: 2009.06.07.
- Improvement (SMPP service provider connection): If multiple delivery reports come in for the same message, the last one will be considered.
- Improvement (HTTP API): Several messages with different text and recipient address can be posted in a single HTTP request to the server. This gives better performance. More information is available in the multiple message submission section of the HTTP API specification.
- Improvement (GUI): The GUI was updated to make it easier to work with many service provider connections and many users (the users are sorted by username, the service providers are sorted by service provider name, the first 15 users and service provider connections will be visible in the menu and there is a separate page to access the rest, some javascript issues have been handled).
Updated: 2009.05.31.
- New feature (SNMP support): Ozeki NG is now integrated with the Windows SNMP service. This integration makes it possible to query informatoin about SMS service provider connections and other parameters through the SNMP protocol. Since SNMP is supported by most network management systems, such as Nagios, HP Openview, Novell NMS, IBM NetView or Sun Net Manager, Ozeki NG SMS Gateway can become a manged component in enterprise networks. More information is available in the Ozeki SNMP extension page.
Updated: 2009.05.26.
- New feature (SMPP service provider connection): A new checkbox was added to the charsets tab of the SMPP service provider connection, that allows the user to convert incoming GSM 7 bit characters to iso 8859-1. This is needed to handle special characters sent by some SMPP service providers.

- The routing of incoming delivery reports has been implemented. This routing is different from the default inbound routing procedure. The incoming delivery reports and status notifications are routed to the user who sent the message that the report refers to.
- The SMPP user option has been added. This means that users can connect to the gateway using SMPP clients. This feature makes it possible to use the software as a protocol converter to convert between SMPP and UCP SMSC connections.
