9. 10. 1 Internal messaging system for system phones
The internal messaging system for system phones allows users to exchange prede-
fined or user-defined text messages between system phones. Text messages can 
also be sent to individual users or message groups.
The internal messaging system for system phones is licence-free (see also "Sending 
and reading text messages", page 454). 
9. 10. 2 Expanded messaging system with 9d-DECT phones
With the expanded, licensed messaging system can be used to implement user-
friendly messaging and alarm systems. The licence enables the use of the SMPP 
protocol and 9d cordless phones to be logged on as system phones. A wide range 
of alarm and message applications as well a cordless DECT phones can then be 
used from the Ascom Wireless Solutions product portfolio.
The communication server is capable of communicating with up to 10 different ES-
MEs. Examples of ESMEs include the IMS (Integrated Message Server) and Mailgate 
(both Ascom Wireless Solutions products).
Aastra 400 ensures the connections between the IMS and the 9d phones. 9d 
phones do not register with under the GAP standard but as system phones. The 
IMS communicates with the communication server via the LAN interface. The SMPP 
protocol is used for this purpose.
A web-based configuration is loaded into the browser via the AMS Shell for the 
configuration of the ESME.
