Hello Everyone !
I am trying to use Freeswitch to primarily receive and rarely send
faxes. I have a user 1050 defined as in the pastebin ... http://pastebin.freeswitch.org/21361
I have a PRI connection and I have configured Freeswitch to have
incoming and outgoing calls. Can someone on this list help me with
the following:
1) Is there a difference between the user configuration for the user
that receives calls and the one that receives a fax? I merely copied the user configuration that came with Freeswitch for user 1000.xml into 1050.xml. should it be differently configured for a number that is allotted to receive faxes ?
2) The dialplan for receiving faxes is given below: Does this look
ok or am I missing something ?
<extension name="fax_receive">
<condition field="destination_number" expression="^(050$)">
<action application="answer" />
<action application="playback" data="silence_stream://2000"/>
<action application="rxfax" data="$${base_dir}/faxes/${caller_id_number}.tif"/>
<action application="hangup"/>
</condition>
</extension>
3) The number that I have configured to receive faxes is 4302050.
When I dial this number from a phone, the call is received in
Freeswitch. But when I try to send a fax online from any of the
internet online fax services or from a local fax machine, the call is never received in
Freeswitch. Any potential reason why this could be happening ?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your time and support.
Best,
Ravi
