Hi im up to the part where ur configuring kannel how do i configure to send sms with my gsm modem and i want to use xampp for host for development purposes

[@linuxlinked]

To connect GSM modem, kannel configuration file should be modified. In video, the configuration file was prepared for smpp connection. Please check this link for sample configuration of GSM modem: github.com/playsms/book-playsms/blob/master/book-contents/en/Installation/Gateway-Installation/Kannel/Example-Kannel-configuration-for-2-GSM-modems.md

[@mosesndagije]

Thanks Amin, could you compare Kannel with Jasmin? Also why would you stop and start the kannel instead of using reload command to update configuration?

[@linuxlinked]

There are many difference between kannel and jasmin as both are developed on different language. But jasmin is more flexible and updated compared to kannel.

[@mosesndagije]
