# SMPP Connection Details

[SMPP](https://smpp.org/) connections are configured using plain text files that use the .conf file extension and can be created, edited and saved using any plain text editor.\
\
The SMPP API requires certain parameters to authenticate and configure session settings such as host and port details, type, and throughput per second.\
\
Below are the recommended details you will require to establish a connection to our SMPP server based on the open-source suite [Kannel 1.5.0](https://kannel.org/download/1.5.0/userguide-1.5.0/userguide.html#AEN1676):
