SNPP Adapter

The SNPP Adapter adds paging send functionality to your BizTalk Server.

Remarks

The SNPP Adapter implements a Simple Network Paging Protocol transmission client that can be used to send pages from your BizTalk Server to any paging-enabled device.

SNPP Send Adapter

The SNPP Send Adapter requires that you set a ServerName and ServerPort to connect to. You must also specify the recipient's PagerId. There is an optional CallerId property that will identify a number for the recipient to call.

The adapter also supports Secure Socket Layer (SSL) transport security. This may be enabled by selecting an SSLCert and a valid SSLAcceptServerCert, and then setting the SSLStartMode to an appropriate value.

Once the send port is set up, it will connect to the SMPP server whenever it has a message to send. By default, it will send the contents of the message body as the text of the short message. This behavior can be overridden by setting the MessageText property at design time or at runtime by writing the property to the message context.

Please refer to the section on adapter configuration for a description of how to configure receive locations and send ports for this adapter.
