Sms Services; Viewing Sms Gateways - Dell Powerconnect W-ClearPass Hardware Appliances Deployment Manual

Auto-Send Field – Select a guest account field which, if set to a non-empty string or non-zero value, will trigger
l
an automatic SMS when the guest account is created or updated. The auto-send field can be used to create an
"opt-in" facility for guests. Use a check box for the auto_send_sms field and add it to the create_user form, or a
guest self-registration instance, and SMS messages will be sent to the specified phone number only if the check
box has been selected.
Credit Warning – When SMS credits get below this threshold, the system will send a warning to the system
l
administrator.
Advanced Gateways – Select this option to configure SMS gateways from multiple SMS providers. ClearPass
l
Guest SMS services support SMS USA, SMS Worldwide, AQL, Sirocco, Tempos 21 and Upside Wireless SMS
gateways.
SMS via SMTP – Select this option to allow visitor account receipt messages to be sent in an email using the
l
defined SMTP server.
Phone Number Normalization – The phone number normalization process translates phone strings that are
l
entered in various formats into a single standard format. Click this drop-down list and select one of the following
options:
Use the visitors value: When you select this option, the SMS gateway will always send the SMS message
n
using the phone number and country code entered by the visitor.
Always include the country code: When you select this option, the SMS gateway will always send the SMS
n
message using the global country code and default phone number length specified in the Default Country
Code and Default Phone Length fields. For example, consider an Australian mobile phone number with a
default number length of 9 plus a leading zero, and a country code of 61. If you selected the Always include
the country code option, the Australian mobile number 0412345678 would normalize to +61412345678 in
the internationalized format.
Never include the country code: When you select this option, any country code specified by the visitor is
n
removed before the SMS message is sent.
