FAX--Store and Forward

[Chuan Liu]

Hi,

I have configured store and forward fax on one of my 3845 gateways (ios C3845-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M) :

================================

fax receive called-subscriber $d$

fax interface-type fax-mail

mta send server A.B.C.D (ip address of the mail server)

mta send with-subject both

mta send mail-from hostname akl-core01.turnstone.net.nz

mta send mail-from username fax-mail

!

application

service faxmail_onramp flash:app_faxmail_onramp.2.0.1.3.tcl

!

service fax_detect flash:app_fax_detect.2.1.2.2.tcl

!

dial-peer voice 139770089 pots

service faxmail_onramp

information-type fax

incoming called-number 39770089

direct-inward-dial

!

dial-peer voice 239770089 mmoip

service fax_on_vfc_onramp_app out-bound

destination-pattern 39770089

information-type fax

session target mailto:39770089@fax.com

=============================

ISDN PRA is the connection to PSTN. Debug isdn q931 is as follows:

----------------

409726: Feb 28 11:03:35.059: ISDN Se0/3/0:15 Q931: RX <- SETUP pd = 8 callref = 0x1F70

Bearer Capability i = 0x8090A3

Standard = CCITT

Transfer Capability = Speech

Transfer Mode = Circuit

Transfer Rate = 64 kbit/s

Channel ID i = 0xA18383

Preferred, Channel 3

Calling Party Number i = 0x2183, '21856588'

Plan:ISDN, Type:National

Called Party Number i = 0xC1, '39770089'

Plan:ISDN, Type:Subscriber(local)

Sending Complete

409727: Feb 28 11:03:35.071: ISDN Se0/3/0:15 Q931: TX -> CALL_PROC pd = 8 callref = 0x9F70

Channel ID i = 0xA98383

Exclusive, Channel 3

409728: Feb 28 11:03:35.075: ISDN Se0/3/0:15 Q931: TX -> DISCONNECT pd = 8 callref = 0x9F70

Cause i = 0x8083 - No route to destination

409729: Feb 28 11:03:35.151: ISDN Se0/3/0:15 Q931: RX <- RELEASE pd = 8 callref = 0x1F70

409730: Feb 28 11:03:35.155: ISDN Se0/3/0:15 Q931: TX -> RELEASE_COMP pd = 8 callref = 0x9F70

---------------------------------

I can telnet to the server on port 25 from this router. Why did I get a 'No route to destination' message? How to solve the problem?

p.s. One other router has exactly the semilar configuration and working fine.

Thanks.

Please post the output from "show dial-peer voice summary". Also remove the "infomation-type fax" under your pots dial peer.

[Chuan Liu]

Hi Zin,

I tried removing the "information-type fax" command. No luck. Here is the summary: I removed the ip addresses.

Your Pots dial-peer is down, assign a port to it (ie port 0/3/0)

[Chuan Liu]

Hi,

You may need the fax detect tcl. Here is my working config:

application

service faxmail_onramp flash:app_faxmail_onramp.2.0.1.3.tcl

!

service fax_detect app_fax_detect.2.1.2.2.tcl

!

You can use "show call hist fax" to chech the fax infor.

Regards.

[hfb5]

Hi, thanks a lot, now is working, but in some many call, give me this error

[Chuan Liu]

Hi,

If the problem happens randomly, I would say the configs are OK, and then focus on the digital interface and packet loss.

Rgds.

[Nicholas Matthews]

It's also possible to get protocol errors when you're using T37 if there is a fax-layer problem that fails. This can happen if we send fax tones and we're ready for page data, but no page data comes. If any of the number of fax timers expire, we will disconnect with 111 protocol error.
