Overview

Simple Network Paging Protocol (SNPP) is a standard for sending one- and two-way wireless messages to pagers. In its simplest form, SNPP provides a simple way to make a link between the Internet and a Telocator Alphanumeric input Protocol (TAP) paging terminal.

The SNPP object features the following:

  • Send Pager messages through the SNPP protocol
  • No additional hardware needed, just an internet connection

The Dialup object is part of the ActiveXperts Mobile Messaging Toolkit. Overview of all Mobile Messaging Toolkit objects:
