I have a general T.38 question. How does it work? Maybe that was too general. But seriously…
Let’s assume 2 MXes’ with 9.0 software and a four pack of T.38 licenses in each. One of the MXes’ has a PRI to the outside world and the 2 MXes’ are linked with IP trunking on their own VLAN. Both MXes’ have P-Nodes with ONS lines for the faxes. So here are my bunch of questions when the IP trunking is involved.
I assume that if a fax was send or received from the MXe with the PRI to the outside, the T.38 would not be involved at all, switched like the old SX2000. Correct?
Does the T.38 just listen for fax tone and then spool the data at the receiving 3300?
Or does a channel get set up between the MXes’ when crossing the IP trunks?
I’ve been told that with IP trunking, there is no programming required. After the licenses are in and the MXe is rebooted you’re good to go. Correct?
In general, how do the T.38 work? What do they do?
Thanks
