<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">Is the FXR-package the NSE one? I set that so it wasn't a<br>
default-package but is still enabled.<br>
What command is for the other method?<br>
<br>
All the T1s are clean to (no errors, no slips, etc).<br>
<br>
I'm just coming into this now as a support guy trying to clean this up<br>
and get things working. Just want outbound FAX's to PSTN working<br>
reliably out of these FAX machines attached to the VG248 which is<br>
mostly where the problem is.<br>
<br>
Other thought is maybe to route the outbound FAX's out a less used PRI<br>
(last in line) and set that gateway up for passthrough along with<br>
VG248s and make a fax route list, CSS, etc that is assigned to the FAX<br>
machines.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help.<br>
