Application Notes for Configuring Sagemcom XMediusFAX
Service Provider Edition with Avaya Aura® Session
Manager and Avaya Aura® Communication Manager
- Issue 1.0
These Application Notes describe the procedures for configuring Sagemcom XMediusFAX
Service Provider (SP) Edition with Avaya Aura® Session Manager and Avaya Aura®
Communication Manager.
XMediusFAX is a software based fax server that sends and receives fax calls over an IP
network. In the configuration tested, XMediusFAX interoperates with Avaya Aura® Session
Manager and Avaya Aura® Communication Manager to send/receive faxes using SIP trunks
and the T.38 fax protocol between XMediusFAX and the Avaya SIP infrastructure.
Information in these Application Notes has been obtained through DevConnect compliance
testing and additional technical discussions. Testing was conducted via the DevConnect
Program at the Avaya Solution and Interoperability Test Lab.

Summary of Contents for Avaya Sagemcom XMediusFAX

  • Page 1 Abstract These Application Notes describe the procedures for configuring Sagemcom XMediusFAX Service Provider (SP) Edition with Avaya Aura® Session Manager and Avaya Aura® Communication Manager. XMediusFAX is a software based fax server that sends and receives fax calls over an IP network.
  • Page 2: Test Results

    Communication Manager and XMediusFAX restarts. Fax calls were also tested with different Avaya Media Gateway media resources to process the fax data. This included the TN2302 MedPro circuit pack, the TN2602 MedPro circuit pack in the Avaya G650 Media Gateway; and the integrated VoIP engine of the Avaya G450 Media Gateway.
  • Page 3: Reference Configuration

     An Avaya S8800 Server running Avaya Aura® Communication Manager with two Avaya G650 Media Gateways. Each media gateway is configured as a separate port network in separate IP network regions. The media resources required are provided by the IP Media Processor (MedPro) circuit packs. Two versions of the IP MedPro circuit pack were tested in the configuration: the TN2302AP and the TN2602AP.
  • Page 4  A Dell™ PowerEdge™ R610 Server running Avaya Aura® System Manager. System Manager provides management functions for Session Manager.  An HP ProLiant DL360 G7 Server running Avaya Aura® Session Manager.  XMediusFAX running on a Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Server (SP1).

  • Page 7 By default, IP-IP direct audio (media shuffling) is enabled to allow audio traffic to be sent directly between IP endpoints without using media resources in the Avaya Media Gateway. Shuffling can be further restricted at the trunk level on the Signaling Group form.
  • Page 8 Leave the FAX Redundancy setting at its default value of 0. A packet redundancy level can be assigned to improve packet delivery and robustness of FAX transport over the network (with increased bandwidth as trade-off). Avaya uses IETF RFC-2198 and ITU-T T.38 specifications as redundancy standard. With this standard, each Fax over IP packet is sent with additional (redundant) 0 to 3 previous fax packets based on the redundancy setting.
