Deprecated capabilities are still available and supported, but they will not be further enhanced. We recommend using the Extended generic SMPP connector.

Migrating to the Extended Generic SMPP connector migrating-extended-generic-smpp

First, you will need to create a new Extended Generic SMPP external account and then you might be able to transpose some of the parameters. You can find the detailed steps in this page.

You now need to fill in the parameters from the Mobile tab of your newly created Extended Generic SMPP external account depending on your previous connector.
