Sharing Ideas … Get User Account Info via SMS in DMASOFTLAB Radius Manager

1- TASK

The task was to provide user a method to inquire his/her account information via sending SMS in specific format to the Billing system.

In this example, we are using DMASOFTLAB Radius Manager as our billing system, and KANNEL along-with the playSMS is already configured and in working condition. kannel+playSMS configuration details have already been described briefly with examples in my previous posts.

We have created an script on the billing system which fetches the user account status and other information from the MYSQL database and print them as per our defined format.

This is just for demonstration purpose. the script have lot of junk data and should be modified before production deployment. I am just sharing some thoughts and ideas only :)

Script is as follows FYR. Hope it may help someone :$

# THE END ! GOTO HOME

2- playSMS SECTION

Now we have to add COMMAND in playSMS which will actually receive the sms and will act accordingly if found the keyword info

 3- TEST PHASE

You can test by executing the script or send sms , as per your choice.

Both methods results are as follows …

by CLI

by SMS
