Overview
This tool is used to send a page via the Simple Network Paging Protocol (level 2). It is designed to be used with 'sendpage', but should work with any other SNPP servers as well.
The /etc/sendpage/snpp.conf file can contain a single line in the form of
server:ADDRESS[:PORT]
where ADDRESS and PORT are the defaults for snpp.
