📘 INTRODUCTION

Diafaan SMS Server is an advanced Windows program that works as an interface through which SMS messages are sent and received. It serves customers as a bridge that binds their existing applications, like CRM (Customer Relationship Management), ERP systems, and custom built solutions, to mobile networks via SMS services, modems, dongles, and internet based in general. The 4.8.0 version, closing the chapter of development, has taken us to the stage of mass messaging, two factor authentication (2FA), and critical alert systems, where now all these features are more secure, stable, and easy to maintain.

📊 OVERVIEW

At the core of Diafaan SMS Server is a stand-alone program that has the ability to run in the background on a Windows machine. The platform is CLI oriented and offers a simple HTTP/HTTPS API, while executing simple scripts that can send SMS messages through any programming language or web-enabled software. The server is in charge of queuing messages, reporting deliverance, and can also work with incoming messages while routing them to specific endpoints. The full version license is released, opening professional features such as no limitation in throughput or no confined functionalities, making an enterprise level deployment.

📝 DESCRIPTION

The design of the software is done with a practical logic: a robust backend deals with all complex tasks of communication with hardware and network providers, while an easy-to-use web interface provides control and monitoring. The observer enjoys the advantage of accessing real-time logs, getting the status of a modem, managing the contact list, and monitoring the messages transmitted or received over his/her local network from any device which uses a standard web browser. This is done using the obvious client-server model, which is a powerful and robust automation system and easily accessible through daily interaction.

✨ KEY FEATURES

• Multi-Gateway Support: It includes many options such as using multiple GSM modems, Android phones (via the Diafaan app), as well as the services of some popular providers, e.g., SMPP, Clickatell, Twilio, and others, the combination of which allows routing messages through different networks to increase the throughput.
• HTTP/HTTPS API: It is possible to integrate easily and effectively with virtually every application using the API, which means that messages can be sent easily, thus allowing for them to be tracked and verified.
• Advanced Message Queuing: The server, which is designed ingeniously, has the job of distributing all the messages to their respective destinations and does retries, in case of network problems, to guarantee successful sending of them.
• Detailed Logging and Delivery Reports: As part of the system, track every message with the comprehensive logs system and also through a series of DLR and make sure that every message got delivered successfully.
• Database Integration: The support provided natively for databases, particularly for Microsoft SQL Server, enables a centralized, scalable location for storing messages, contacts, and settings.
• Plug-in System: Module—Fully display secret information (custom plug-ins) sent or received with gastric or mouse events after sending or before receiving.
• High Security: Has given a strong case for the use of the secure HTTPS connection on both the user interface and the programming interface (API) platform as a result of their encrypted communications.
• SMS Routing Rules: Customize the process of sending messages using complex rules such as connecting messages to specific modems or operators according to the number, content, and more.

💻 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

In order to be able to run Version 4.8.0, a machine that adheres to these standards is enough:

• Operating System: It is supported on all new Windows versions starting from Windows 10, and Windows Server versions starting from Windows Server 2012 R2.
• Processor: either a 1 GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) chip.
• Memory (RAM): 512 MB at the least, 2 GB+ if tons of deal loads for server setup.
• Hard disk space: Roughly, a space of 100 MB is to be lying vacant.
• Additional Software: .NET The Framework 4.8 package is the additional thing that you will need; this is automatically installed by the installer directly if you don’t have it on your computer.
• Network: Setting up online SMS gateways requires a live internet connection, and it has to be kept that way through the use of a GSM modem; a USB port hence is necessary for this service.
