NetXMS Support Forum

Hey guys!

Did anyone try to configure any smartphone connected to NetXMS server for sending SMS notifications? By connecting I mean permanent cable connection.
I am wondering if it is only possible to avoid using GSM modem or web gateway.

I'm not sure about modern smartphone, but you can use most old school phones as a GSM modem for sending messages.
If it can be connected to serial port (real one or virtual port over USB) – most likely it will work with netxms.

Ok, then in case of using "old style" phone for example Nokia which can use Nokia Connectivity tool, how can I configure the server so they will communicate with each other? SMSDriver?

If this Nokia is available over serial port (check device manager for virtual ports), then you can use it with "generic" driver.

The are two server parameters (Configuration -> Server Configuration): SMSDriver и SMSDrvConfig.

Example (port COM1, port speed - 9600, 8 data bits, no flow control, 1 stop bit):

SMSDriver=generic.sms
SMSDrvConfig=COM1:,9600,8,N,1,T
