Short Message Service (SMS) messaging support

Short Message Service (SMS) message transmission is only supported for the Commerce Enabled Portal feature of WebSphere Commerce. SMS message transmission in WebSphere Commerce is provided by WebSphere Everyplace Connection Manager.

WebSphere Everyplace Connection Manager supports many protocols for SMS message transmission. WebSphere Everyplace Connection Manager Version 5.0 supports either AIX or Solaris machines, and is a prerequisite for the SMS notification (outbound) function. As such, you need to install the WebSphere Everyplace Connection Manager on a separate machine for production purposes. To manage WebSphere Everyplace Connection Manager, you must install the Wireless Gatekeeper Version 2.1, part of the Everyplace Wireless Gateway package. The Wireless Gatekeeper is only supported on Windows and AIX. For more information see the Everyplace Wireless Gateway Administrator's Guide. Familiarize yourself with the following chapters: Planning a Messaging Gateway for short message delivery operation and Adding a Messaging gateway to the Wireless Gateway.

Note: This release has only been tested on the SMTP protocol.
