To achieve this, do the following:

  1. Edit the eg_services.ini file in the <EG_MANAGER_INSTALL>\manager\config directory.
  2. Define a URL against the NowSmsUrl parameter in the [SMS_SERVER] section of the file in the format shown below.

    NowSmsUrl=http://<NowSmsServer>:<NowSmsPort>/?PhoneNumber=&Text=

    A sample configuration is shown below:-

    [SMS_SETTINGS]

    NowSmsUrl=http://192.168.1.25:8800/?PhoneNumber=&Text=

  3. Once the NowSmsUrl is set, save the file.
