	<title>Overview</title>
	<para>
		This module provides a way of communication between &sip; network 
		(via &sip MESSAGE) and <acronym>GSM</acronym> networks 
		(via ShortMessageService). Communication is possible from
		&sip; to <acronym>SMS</acronym> and vice versa. The module provides 
		facilities like <acronym>SMS</acronym> confirmation--the gateway can 
		confirm to the &sip; user if his message really reached its 
		destination as a <acronym>SMS</acronym>--or multi-part
		messages--if a &sip; messages is too long it will be split and sent 
		as multiple
		<acronym>SMS</acronym>.
	</para>
	<para>
		Errors occurred because of an invalid number or a too long message or 
		because of an internal modem malfunction are reported back to the 
		&sip; user via a &sip; message containing explanations regarding the 
		error.
	</para>
	<section>
		<title>Hardware Requirements</title>
		<para>
		The <acronym>SMS</acronym> module needs a <acronym>GSM</acronym> modem 
		to be able to send/receive the <acronym>SMS</acronym> messages. 
		Usually, this kind of modems are externals, linked to the machine via 
		serial cable. The modem can be a dedicated one (as the ones provided 
		by FALCOM) or can be a <acronym>GSM</acronym> telephone that
		has an internal modem (as the latest mobile phones from NOKIA and 
		ERICSSON).
		</para>
	</section>
	<section>
		<title>Numbering Plan</title>
		<para>
		The gateway accepts and advertises phone numbers in international 
		format, more specific like: +(international code)(area code)(number). 
		Ex: Germany, D1 = [phone] Romania, Connex = [phone]. 
		A number in this format is expected to be placed as username into 
		<acronym>RURI</acronym> or in the To header. If <acronym>RURI</acronym> 
		misses the username, the To header will be consider. Also,
		the gateway will advertise in this format the username in Contact
		headers (in &sip; replies and requests) and in From headers 
		(in &sip; requests).
		</para>
	</section>
	<section>
		<title>Address Mapping</title>
		<para>
		To identify the destination number of the <acronym>SMS</acronym>, the 
		gateway expects to have a mobile number in username of the &sip; 
		destination address (for example sip:[e-mail]). For 
		the reverse direction, because the gateway has only one 
		<acronym>GSM</acronym> number, the destination &sip; address has to be
		encapsulated into the <acronym>SMS</acronym> body. The gateway expects 
		to find a &sip; address at the beginning of the <acronym>SMS</acronym> 
		body in <quote>sip:user.host</quote> format. Everything before the 
		&sip; address will be discarded, the useful text begins exactly after 
		the address (for example 
		SMS=<quote>For sip:user@host hello world!!</quote> -> SIP=
		<quote>hello world</quote>) In order to facilitate replying, the 
		gateway sends all the <acronym>SMS</acronym> messages with a header 
		containing the source &sip; address in the following format: 
		<quote>From sip:user@host (if you reply DONOT remove 
		it)&lt;new_line&gt;</quote>. When an <acronym>SMS</acronym>-reply is 
		received having this header (all of it or truncated at the end), the 
		header will be left out (it will not be in the &sip; message).
