Each user must register their phone number with the SMS modem, by sending an SMS text message that includes user name and password to the SMS modem number. Otherwise, SMS requests do not work. Develop a process for informing users how to register with the SMS modem.
Registering the SMS modem with Unwired Accelerator
Obtain the SMS modem number.
Send an SMS text message with these three lines to the SMS modem number, substituting your Unwired Accelerator user name and password:
Register <user name> <password>
The user name and password values are entered in the portaldatabase table users, and the SMS modem number is entered in the cell_phone_number column.
If role-based access is set to “true” (see Table 3-2 for information about the roleBasedAccess property), the CMC software checks the request to see whether the phone number for the requesting user is registered. If the number is not registered, the user is prompted to register it.
