The service center number for sending short messages. It is generally
retrieved automatically from your SIM card but you may define a fix
number here.
Routing & Filtering
By using SMS routing you can specify outbound rules which will be applied whenever message are
sent. On the one hand, you can forward them to an enabled modem. For a particular number, you can
for instance enforce messages being sent over a dedicated SIM. Phone numbers can also be specified
by regular expressions, here are some examples:
Number
Result
+12345678
Specifies a fixed number
+1*
Specifies any numbers starting with
+1
+1*9
Specifies any numbers starting with
+1
and ending with
9
+[12]*
Specifies any numbers starting with either
+1
or
2

Please note that numbers have to be entered in international format including a valid prefix.
On the other hand, you can also define rules to drop outgoing messages, for instance, when you want
to avoid using any expensive service or international numbers.
Both types of rules form a list will be processed by order, forwarding outgoing messages over the
specified modem or dropping them. Messages which are not matching any of the rules below will be
dispatched to the first available modem.
Filtering serves a concept of firewalling incoming messages, thus either dropping or allowing them
on a per-modem basis. The created rules are processed by order and in case of matches will either
drop or forward the incoming message before entering the system. All non-matching messages will be
allowed.
Status
The status page can be used to the current modem status and get information about any sent or
received messages. There is a small SMS inbox reader which can be used to view or delete the
messages. Please note that the inbox will be cleared each midnight in case it exceeds 512 kBytes of
flash usage.
Testing
This page can be used to test whether SMS sending in general or filtering/routing rules works. The
maximum length per message part is limited to 160 characters, we also suggest to exclusively use
characters which are supported by the GSM 7-bit alphabet.
