OTP SMS with API (SMS Gateway)

Hello, I'd like to do OTP SMS via an HTTP API I'm reading this link but is it still up to date (February,2011) ? the VPE is still OK or maybe they are news things..   Should I still need the iR...

    Hi cd,

     

    I'm using a hardware device SMSEagle as my SMS gateway with APM.

     

    As Neils rightly said above, there is no need to use an iRule.

     

    I'm using these VPE agents in this particular sequence:

     

    OTP Generate

    HTTP Auth (to send the OTP as SMS)

    Logon Page (to collect the OTP)

    OTP Verify

     

    Please refer to attached screenshots.

     

    I hope it helps.

Even with the "?" it still dosent work:

 > Session variable 'session.http.last.errmsg' set to 'Curl perform failed: Couldn't connect to server'

I tried with GET or POST METHOD

 

Using Postman the curl is working in POST METHOD

>POSThttps://europe.ipx.com/restapi/v1/sms/send

BODY >messageText=test+Message+1&destinationAddress=33611223344&username=xxxxxxxt&password=xxxxx

 WITH HEADER> Accept:application/json and Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded

From F5 it doesn't work

curl -vkX POST https://europe.ipx.com/restapi/v1/sms/send -d 'messageText=REST+test4&destinationAddress=33611223344&username=xxxxxx&password=xxxxxxx'

* About to connect() to europe.ipx.com port 443 (#0)

*  Trying 194.165.14.200... Connection refused

* couldn't connect to host

* Closing connection #0

curl: (7) couldn't connect to host

 

 

I tried the curl command from an other linux server and it's working but not from the F5 :/
