end device doesn't support T.38, the fax fails. In this mode, the 'Fax Transport Mode'
parameter (FaxTransportMode) is ignored.

To configure T.38 mode using SIP Re-INVITE messages:
1. Open the Gateway General Settings page (Setup menu > Signaling & Media tab >
Gateway folder > Gateway General Settings), and then from the 'Fax Signaling
Method' drop-down list (IsFaxUsed), select T.38 Relay:
2. On the Fax/Modem/CID Settings page, configure the following optional parameters:
•
'Fax Relay Redundancy Depth' (FaxRelayRedundancyDepth)
•
'Fax Relay Enhanced Redundancy Depth'
(FaxRelayEnhancedRedundancyDepth)
•
'Fax Relay ECM Enable' (FaxRelayECMEnable)
•
'Fax Relay Max Rate' (FaxRelayMaxRate)
Note:
capabilities are negotiated in SIP. However, the originating device by default, sends
T.38 (assuming the T.38 capabilities are negotiated in SIP) only after it receives T.38
packets from the remote device. This default behavior cannot be used when the
originating device is located behind a firewall that blocks incoming T.38 packets on
ports that have not yet received T.38 packets from the internal network. To resolve
this problem, the device should be configured to send CNG packets in T.38 upon
CNG signal detection (CNGDetectorMode = 1).
14.2.2.1.2 Automatically Switching to T.38 Mode without SIP Re-INVITE
In the Automatically Switching to T.38 Mode without SIP Re-INVITE mode, when a fax
signal is detected, the channel automatically switches from the current voice coder to
answer tone mode and then to T.38-compliant fax relay mode.

To configure automatic T.38 mode:
1. Open the Gateway General Settings page (Setup menu > Signaling & Media tab >
Gateway folder > Gateway General Settings), and then from the 'Fax Signaling
Method' drop-down list (IsFaxUsed), select No Fax:
2. On the Fax/Modem/CID Settings page, set the 'Fax Transport Mode' parameter to
T.38 Relay (FaxTransportMode = 1).
3. Configure the following optional parameters:
•
'Fax Relay Redundancy Depth' (FaxRelayRedundancyDepth)
•
'Fax Relay Enhanced Redundancy Depth'
(FaxRelayEnhancedRedundancyDepth)
•
'Fax Relay ECM Enable' (FaxRelayECMEnable)
•
'Fax Relay Max Rate' (FaxRelayMaxRate)
