Does the SMS gateway have a way to interface to it? As long as there is an API of some sort to send messages through it, you should be able to craft up a script to serve as the communication between the two.

Let us know what further information you're able to provide, and we can help you with the Nagios portion.

Suppose we have one client and one nagios server, As configured if anything went wrong on the client a SMS should be triggered. Is there any way we can look forward for such feature in nagios core

You would just need to configure that client as a contact to all of the related hosts / services in Core.

I'm not sure I understand your issue. Have you looked through https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ios-XI.pdf ? I think that's what you want, but if not could you explain in more detail what you are trying to do?

You can either setup your own script to send them, or set the contact's email to yournumber@carriersms.fqdn which should work. As I mentioned above, if you're not looking to go this route then we'll need more information.
