How Wireless Messaging Works
To send a message, the host machine must have access to SMTP and POP3 servers and the Wireless Messaging server must be running. This is how Wireless Messaging works:
- The Wireless Messaging client executable, capagecl, uses two files to generate outbound messages and interpret replies. The message file lists responses that are sent with a notification message and gives directions to the Wireless Messaging client. The configuration file applies a numerical return code to each active response sent to the Event Console.
- A message is created on the Wireless Messaging client from the message file, sent to the Wireless Messaging server, and then to a remote pager.
- The pager operator chooses a response from the list, adds the ID# of the original message to it, and replies to the message.
- The Wireless Messaging client receives the response from the Wireless Messaging server and translates it to a return code defined in the configuration file.
