What is the difference between SMPP version 3.3 and 3.4 ?


The main difference between these SMPP versions is that version 3.4 supports the use of optional parameters, also called TLV’s (Tag-Length-Value ).

These TLV parameters enable SMSC vendors to add custom functionality to the SMPP protocol.
