T-Mobile uses UCP to provide IP SMS service in Hungary. Their service is very
reliable and provides excellent throughput. The following webpage
gives you the setup instructions to configure this connection. Please
note, that after the connection setup you will have to send them low level
UCP communication logs. Make sure that you configure your connection
according to the following guidelines, to avoid delays in the setup process.
Signing up for T-mobile SMS service
When you subscribe for the IP SMS service of T-Mobile Hungary, you receive
a technical data sheet containing the connection details (Figure 1). These
details should be configured in Ozeki NG SMS Gateway.
Figure 1 - UCP connection parameters for T-Mobile Hungary
Note, that the value of these parameters will be different in your data sheet!
When you configure Ozeki NG SMS Gateway, please use the values you have received.
Setting up Ozeki NG SMS Gateway for T-mobile SMS service
To setup the UCP connection, you need to download
and install Ozeki NG SMS Gateway. After installation, open the Ozeki NG SMS
gateway user interface and click on the Add service provider link in the
Management form (Figure 2).

On the Add service provider connection form, select the UCP connection and
click on Install (Figure 3).

This will bring up the UCP configuration form. In the UCP Settings tab
of this form, please enter the parameters you have received from T-Mobile.
Please fill in the host, the port, the OAdC and the password values
into the respected fields (Figure 4).
The range parameter is your telephone number, please replace the double
zero prefix of this phone number to a plus sign and enter it into the
Telephone number field.
Copy the value of the Cons Field into the Service provider name text box.

The next thing to do is to open the General settings tab (Figure 5). On
this tab make sure the Request delivery report option is checked and
change the value of the keepalive parameter to 30 sec. We can
recommend you to increase the value of the keepalive requests because
T-Mobile offers a reliable connection and it is not necessary to test it
every 30 seconds.

Next, open the Logging tab (Figure 6). On this tab check the Log low level
communication checkbox. This will make sure, that you can produce the logs
necessary for T-Mobile Hungary to enable your service.

After logging has been setup you need to open the Advanced tab (Figure 7).
NOTE:
On this tab you must select the Use LA_id in responses radio
button and you must enter the range parameter that is your telephone number.

Finally you may check the Charsets tab (Figure 8) to verify if character
encoding will work according to your requirements.

Sending the logs to T-mobile
To finalize the setup process, you need to click on connect. After the connection
has been established, please send an SMS message from Ozeki NG to your mobile
phone. You can do this by clicking on the compose link (Figure 9).

After you have received the message, please also send a response SMS to
verify incoming SMS messaging. The incoming message should be visible in
your inbox folder. After this is done, please click on Events menu to
find the log files (Figure 10).
