MMS configuration

Article

MMS configuration consists of creating needed APN configuration, Proxy configuration, Connection policy configuration, MMS proxy and application configuration, and setting the Push proxy gateway configuration.

The following sample shows an example MMS configuration. For a more detailed connectivity configuration sample, see Connectivity configuration.

Important

For dual SIM phones, you can specify multiple connection names using TO-NAPID, where the names are separated by semicolons. When specifying any Connection Manager names in the Answer file for connections intended for MMS applications, the name must contain @WAP suffix as part of the Connection name.

MMS proxy configuration

<Settings Path="PGList/contoso_mms-PRXY $(__MVID)/contoso_mms-PRXY-PHY" $(__MVID)>
    <Setting Name="AddressType" Value="IPv4" />
    <Setting Name="Address" Value="proxy.contoso.com" />
    <Setting Name="MatchedNapID" Value="zzzcontoso_mms $(__MVID)" />
</Settings>

The following table describes the configurable parameters that must be set. Each of these settings is specific to the network operator.

Important

The proxy and physical proxy names used in the path (in the above example, they are “contoso_mms-PRXY $(__MVID)” and “contoso_mms-PRXY-PHY $(__MVID)“) and the MatchedNapId setting must match the names used for Connections settings (Cellular/Policy/Proxy).

Setting	Description
AddressType	Specifies the format and protocol of the physical proxy. Value values are “E164” and “IPv4”.
Address	Specifies the address of the physical proxy.
MatchedNapId	Connection name. Must match the name of a configured cellular connection.
