[cisco-voip] Fax servers

[Matt Slaga (US)]

Xmedius now supports fax over MGCP.  The issue was actually a
callmanager limitation of allowing T38 through an MGCP gateway.  Now
that this is fixed/added in 4.2(3), you can still keep your gateways on
MGCRAP and connect to your Xmedius server using H323.

Can I set it up like PSTN - PRI - VGW (MGCP) - CM - H323 VGW - Xmedius ?
or does the PSTN VGW have to be H323?  I have no problem with H323 and
would move that way but I still have a legacy PBX behind CM and I just
have a route pattern xxxx to the PBX so if nothing matches on the CM it
goes to the PBX.  I'm hoping to get rid of the PBX soon but with 500+
DID's and none in consecutive order H323 would be a night mare as I move
DID's over.

I think you'll find a lot of issues with MGCP, for example CVP, VXML,
Mobility Manager all require H323. While MGCP is simple to configure,
the features seem to be developed around H323.

I did a trial run with Xmedius about 1 year ago. I believe you can use
it for inbound and outbound as you described.  The real plus with
Xmedius is that it is a software only solution that uses your H.323
gateways for faxing.  I'm not sure if anything has changed but at the
time they did not support MGCP.  Unfortunately all our gateways were
MGCP at the time.   Looked liked a good product with very fair pricing.
I think they price per B-channel used on a PRI.

I was just looking at this.... and it's for VM only installs.  Which
doesn't make a lot of sense. But that's what it said.

How about this?

It may not be robust enough for what you want to do, and there's lots of

caveats, but I think I remember Jeff Lindborg (aka, "Mr. Unity") saying 
in the Cisco forums that a lot of those were CYAs.
