Hello,
I'm trying to receive faxes with asterisk. My configuration is like this:
PSTN fax -> ISDN -> Cisco router with VoIP module -> Asterisk
When I try to send a fax from PSTN fax I got the standard fax signal,
Asterisk starts rxfax application and then call ends and there is no tif
anywhere. On the fax display there is still one message: Calling...
I think that it can be an issue with my Cisco router (2821).
This is part of my Cisco config:
voice-card 0
no dspfarm

voice service voip
sip

As I understand, the preferred codec is ulaw.
Should I change something in this configuration?
I tried fax protocol pass-through g711ulaw and g711alaw but this nothing
changed.
I was searching for fax handling on Cisco site and I found something
like this:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122newft/122t/122t11/faxapp/
I think that the method that suites my needs is "T.37 Store and Forward
Fax" but it needs some TCL script that should be available on Cisco site
but now they are gone
(http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/tclware). Does anybody know
where to download these scripts from? Or maybe that isn't the best
method for achieving this?
