Inbound / outbound Faxing

[mmiktus]

We have a client with a functioning inbound fax configuration between their Unity 4.0(4) & 3725 gateway. They now want to implement Outbound faxing as well.

I need to know:

1: what, if any, changes need to be made to the gateway.

2: what are the practical limits of this service. IE: how many faxes in a day is too many.

3: Do the changes to the gateway, if there are any, require a reboot of the router?

Thanks in advance

1. Yes. Take a look at the config example and troubleshooting guide:

2. That's difficult to say because a lot depends on what else the gateway is doing. For inbound/outbound faxing, the biggest resource hit is on memory, so I'd keep an eye on that.

3. No.

http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/788/AVVID/unity-ipfax-out-gtwy.html is the an additional document for OUTBOUND Fax configurations. (just got this one today from an SE)

Thanks for the Info. The router is also handling 3 PRI's, Inbound-Faxing, and a whole bunch of other stuff i can't remember right now. I'll keep an eye on the memory. Will follow-up after the installation with any little hick-ups i came across.

Just for the record, the document you list there IS on the page Markus noted (the IP Fax Configuration Wizard home page). The troubleshooting guide, inbound gateway config and outbound gateway config documents are all there...
