Fax Detection

[gmcleveney_2]

Hello,

I wanted to know if its possible to detect a fax call from PSTN and direct it to a particular voip dial-peer.

Any info is appreciated..

You can create a voip dial-peer with your fax number in the destination-pattern. For example:

dial-peer voice 555 voip

destination-pattern 5551234

...

where 5551234 is your fax number.

No the issue is that its just not one fax number, I need to be able to detect a fax incoming call and pick one outbound dial-peer for all the fax calls.

This TCL script plays a prompt to the caller and apprently then makes a routing deciscion. I'm assuming you want automatic detection, but this is better than nothing.

I'm not aware of any way to detect the call type in the dial-peer or global commands. It certainly would be a nice feature.
