Configuring Rerouting of Calls to Fax Destinations
You can configure the device to reroute incoming SBC calls identified as fax calls to a new IP
destination. The device identifies a fax call if it detects, within a user-defined interval, a calling
(CNG) tone on the originator side (incoming IP leg). If the device detects a fax call, it terminates the
call and reroutes it using a new INVITE to the new fax destination (new IP Group). If the initial
INVITE that was used to establish the voice call was already sent, the device sends a CANCEL (if
not connected yet) or a BYE (if already connected) to release the call (with the internal disconnect
reason RELEASE_ BECAUSE_ FAX_ REROUTING, translated to Q.850 reason GWAPP_
NORMAL_UNSPECIFIED 31).
● You must configure the originating fax to use the G.711 coder.
● If the remote side replies with T.38 or G.711 VBD, fax rerouting is not done.
● If both fax rerouting and fax re-INVITE are configured, only fax rerouting is done.
The following provides a basic example on how to configure fax rerouting.
➢
To configure fax rerouting:
1. Open the Fax/Modem/CID Settings page ( Setup menu > Signaling & Media tab > Media
folder > Fax/Modem/CID Settings ).
a. In the 'Fax Detection Timeout' field [SBCFaxDetectionTimeout], enter the duration (in
seconds) for which the device attempts to detect fax (CNG tone):
b. From the 'CNG Detector Mode' drop-down list [CNGDetectorMode], select Event Only .
2. Load an ini file to the device through the Auxiliary Files page (see Loading Auxiliary Files
through Web Interface on page 664) with the following parameter setting, which enables in-
band network detection related to fax:
EnableFaxModemInbandNetworkDetection = 1
3. In the IP Groups table (see Configuring IP Groups ), configure the following IP Groups:
● IP Group #0 "HQ": This is the source IP Group, sending voice calls and fax calls.
● IP Group #1 "Voice": This is the destination for voice calls sent from IP Group #0.
● IP Group #2 "Fax": This is the destination for fax calls sent from IP Group #0.
4. For the fax destination (IP Group #2), do the following:
a. In the Coder Groups table (see Configuring Coder Groups ), configure a Coder Group with
T.38 to enable fax transmission over IP.
b. In the IP Profiles table (see Configuring IP Profiles ), configure an IP Profile:
i. From the 'Fax Coders Group' drop-down list, select the Coder Group that you
configured above.
ii. From the 'Fax Mode' drop-down list, select Handle always .
