MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide

Configuring IP Fax
Configuring IP fax options

Following is an example of an IP fax configuration that enables the MAX unit to handle 
outgoing fax calls as shown in Figure 7-4:

IP Fax Enabled=Yes

Login=ipfax

Password=works

With this configuration, the MAX unit processes an IP fax as follows:

The fax server on the local network receives fax data across the Internet from a remote fax 
server.

The fax server initiates a connection to the MAX unit, sending its login name and 
password in the first TCP packet.

If the login name and password match the Server-Login and Server-Password values, 
respectively, in the IP-Fax profile, the MAX unit establishes a TCP session with the fax 
server. If authentication fails, the connection is cleared.

After authentication, the MAX transfers control of an available modem to the fax server.

The fax server sends modem commands encapsulated in TCP packets, initiates a 
connection to the destination fax machine, and sends the spooled data. If no send or 
receive activity occurs for more than 2 minutes, the session is terminated and resources are 
freed.

For fax accounting, a fax session starts when a modem resource is allocated and stops 

when a session is terminated.

Conexant supplies two fax hangup codes:
