I ask this because the PSTN (legacy technology) has been replaced in some parts of the world by NGN where the layers are reduced to Access, IP Core, Control and Transport. With functions such as sms or Apps are built into the NGN system, does this then become part of the internet or does it not?<br>

SMS is not Internet protocol. Just so there's no confusion.<br>

Sure, but you would have the same issue if you decided to use Twitter or Skype to dispatch your ambulances.<br>
<br>
(I'm not saying any of these claim to be suitable for the application in question, but you'd be surprised how people make assumptions).<br>
<br>
And I'd expect most institutionalised SMS sending to be initiated "over the Internet" before it hits the mobile networks at an SMS message centre, so IP creeps into solutions like this almost inevitably.<div>
