Wireless Messaging creates messages from information in the message file. Messages are composed of fixed text, environment variables like &NODEID and substitution variables like &1, &source, and &severity.
The message file may include a list of pre-formatted replies expected from the message recipient. The processing of replies, however, is independent of the message file contents. The recipient may send additional or alternative replies, and these replies are resolved into actions if the replies are included in the configuration file and if policy actions specify how to handle the additional return codes.
Besides directives to the Wireless Messaging client (set xxx=yyy), text written to the message file is appended to the message specified on the command line and included in the sent message. The format of the reply text depends on the device to which the message is sent. The wireless messaging client recognizes replies delimited by three underscore characters, as in “___Reply___” though this formatting may be transparent on remote devices.
For information about formatting the commands embedded in the message file, see the online CA Reference.
