What Is SNPP
SNPP is a
simple way for delivering wireless messages, both one and two-way, to
appropriate receiving devices such as pagers and cellular phones. In its
simplest form, SNPP provides a simple way to implement a "shim"
between the Internet and a TAP/IXO paging terminal. In a level 3 form, it
receiving end-to-end acknowledgments and replies from a two-way messaging device
such as ReFLEX units.
Gateways supporting this protocol have been in use for well
over a year at several commercial companies such as Nextel
and American
Messaging, and private businesses as
well. A list of companies that currently have SNPP Gateways can be found here.
