 Posted: Mon Apr 16, 2007 10:31 am Post subject: WCTP Setup |
 |
|
| I tried configuring for WCTP but noticed that I MUST enter the carrier as WCTP. This appears to be the same for SMTP and SNPP as well. My question is can I only have ONE WCTP carrier listed? If this is correct does that mean I can only have one carrier that is using WCTP? What do I do if I want to have all the different carriers under WCTP. Am I doing something wrong? When using TAP numbers it doesn't matte how many carriers I have.

| No, you can have multiple carriers that use the same protocol no matter what the protocol. Each Carrier uses a different host for the WCTP and SNPP protocols, such as wctp.metrocall.com/wctp for Metrocall and wctp.americanmessaging.net/wctp for American Message and snpp.alltel.net for Alltell and pecos.nextel.com for Nextel.

| When configuring the carriers, just give them a different name.

| I have tried this. I tried naming one Arch WCTP so that I could differentiate it between my Arch TAP but it said illegal characters in the name and would not take it.

| Ah, it was rejecting the space. Replace the space with an underscore or dash and it'll accept the name.
